"Then There Were Ghosts"

MacKinlay Kantor wrote about many subjects during his career, so it's not surprising that he wrote a good ghost story; but I don't think that this is just a story.  This is an excerpt from the essay "Of Course There Are Apparitions," from the book, The Day I Met A Lion.  Everything else in this book is true, but of course, you can use your own judgment.  Happy Halloween!
