Indeed, he knew of no other house of a similar size, of such an imposing appearance, and so pleasantly situated, that he could have bought for less than twice the amount he had paid for this; and he was really very sorry for the Tylers, who explained to him, in confidence, that had they not been in such urgent need of money, they would never have sold Donaldgowerie House at such a ridiculously low figure.
The Whittingens now began to wish they had never come to Donaldgowerie; but, with the astuteness that had been characteristic of the family through countless generations of fair days and foul, they took the greatest precautions never to drop even as much as a hint to the servants or to any one in the town that the house was haunted.
She never did. My mother died last year I felt her death terribly, O'Donnell; and as I no longer have any fixed abode, but am always touring the British provinces, there is not much fear of Ralph's murderess and I meeting. How can one explain it all?" "One can't," I responded, as we turned in for the night. Donaldgowerie House, until comparatively recent times, stood on the outskirts of Perth.
Of course, no one saving her father and mother believed her. Ernest, his wife, and the servants attributed her bloody act to jealousy; the law to madness; and she subsequently journeyed from Donaldgowerie to a criminal lunatic asylum, where the recollection of all she had done soon killed her. This was the climax. Mr.
Whittingen sold Donaldgowerie, and a new house was shortly afterwards erected in its stead. Some years ago, when I was engaged in collecting cases for a book I contemplated publishing, on Haunted Houses in England and Wales, I was introduced to an Irish clergyman, whose name I have forgotten, and whom I have never met since.
Indeed, until then they had always smiled in a very supercilious manner at even the smallest mention of a ghost. September came, their first September in Donaldgowerie, and the family welcomed with joy Ernest and his youthful bride. The coming of the newly-married pair to Donaldgowerie brought with it a burst of bird-like gaiety.
