HIS DOPPELGANGER AND A MYSTERIOUS SHADOW

A narrator relates a strange Doppelganger episode and a later real sighting of his own double. While reading at a country house, he is confronted by a living apparition seen by his wife Lilly and two daughters. The doppelganger appears in the drawing room and on the stairs, provoking fear of an intruder and prompting an upstairs search that finds no intruder. The event is analyzed as an authentic doppelganger but leaves questions about self and perception unresolved. The incident later recurs in New York and England with no clear explanation.
