Ghostly Visitor in Haunted House Spawns Midnight Terror
In a village house long abandoned a pair of visitors spend a night chasing a ghost that emerges at 1 o clock. The specter, Caspar Troup, recounts his murder and haunts his killer as the pair witness a chilling pursuit through Standiford's room before leaving in fear. The tale ends with Standiford’s uneasy composure afterward. Also noted is Canton’s Water Clock, housed in a temple on the city walls, where a four jar clepsydra marks time with a century old ritual.
