Australian Ghost Haunts Governor General’s Canberra Residence
Central Press reports a legend of an aboriginal ghost haunting Kia Yarralumla House where Lord and Lady Casey reside. A 1981 manuscript recounts the 1826 diamond theft linked to a convict and a groom, a chase ending with the aboriginal carrier swallowing the gem and dying near the tree roots. The tale notes the ghost is seen on moonlit nights and that Lord Casey now wears morning dress instead of the traditional uniform.
