| Steep Hollow Chapel/Congregational Church |
North Mianus had a ghost located on the road leading to Steep Hollow Chapel.
It first made its appearance two weeks ago last Sunday evening, and was seen by a young man, and it frightened him half out of his senses.
The Monday night following a more courageous individual determined to investigate it.
When about half way to the chapel he saw a white robed form speeding over the ground a short distance ahead, and he started in pursuit.
As he neared it, it appeared to be a woman nearly dressed in white.
He made two unsuccessful attempts to seize her, when the apparition suddenly turned a gave him a "stinger" from the right shoulder, making him see stars, and when he recovered it had vanished.
After mature deliberation, the young man has come to the conclusion that it was a ghost of some fellow whose girl had deserted him.
