Grasgarth Hall Ghost Tale of a Jacobite Brothers Fate
A Yorkshire ghost story recounts Grasgarth Hall, where Sir Hugh and James, Jacobite and Hanoverian brothers, vanished after a heated quarrel in 1745. Sir Hugh died of a head wound and James went mad, with the estate later sold. A guest near Grasgarth recalls a spectral figure in an old room, a white wig and embroidered coat, emerging from the fire and fading as dawn broke, leaving a chilling memory.

Prospects of Reconstruction and partisan fault lines
The editorial argues broad public desire to finish Reconstruction in the South, rebukes stubborn figures like Perry and Stevens, and praises those urging swift peaceful settlement. It notes voter registration under the Reconstruction Act proceeding in the South and predicts a December Congress with broader Southern representation, urging unity against self-serving politicians. It ends with a note about a New York Tribune strike at Herald dispatches.
