Ghostly coastal ruin and misted southern hall tale
A long fragment describes Ashley Hall’s crumbling plantation grounds across a river, with ancient oaks, marble steps, and ruined halls.

Also notes a curious digression about Mexican burros and water digging.

Jackal Strategy Allegedly Uses Herding to Trap Deer in India
A British India anecdote recounts jackals herding an axis deer toward a lake and delaying it at the water’s edge by yelping from the jungle margin. The deer, waterlogged and exhausted, is driven to stumble back into open ground where the hunt may finish. A native servant notes this tactic is commonly used there. The tale is paired with literary reflections on individuality in women and a remark by critic William Archer about Stevenson.
