Louis Tracy

The Late Tenant Louis Tracy

An author from Wyoming rents a flat in London which has a reputation of being haunted by the ghost of its former dead tenant! Excerpt: "So, like many another youngster in the far lands, he heard the voice of London calling through every book and newspaper he read. It was a siren voice, devoid of accent. The Wyoming wooing, too, became a serious matter; hence, like one of the dove-eyed oxen he knew so well, he stampeded in sudden panic, realized his personal possessions, and, in the vernacular of Sioux Pass, "lit out for the nearest depot, an' boarded an east-bound train."
