Til 3 Haunted Ship.
I shipped in the Norway for the
passaae from Cronst.ult to Hull,
and another English gentleman,
who went by the name of Jack Hast
ings, joiued her at the same time,
lie and I lodged together on the
shore, and be jam o somewhat ac
quainted before we became ship
mates. He was a man of consider
able information,*l and, ftoin bis
ta'.k, bad seen his share of the woild
but was not much of a sailor, as I
had already surmised from the cut
of his jib.
We found C.ipt. Phelps, of tha
Norway a Tartar iu the worst sense
of the word ; and the voyage was
anything but a pleasant one, espe
chtliy to Hustings. He had shipped
for an able seaman's wages, and his
deficiencies were soon apparent, es
pecially to a captain who had a
hawk's eye for the weak points in a
in m, that he might come down on
hioi. As I had a strong feeling of
lespect for the youug man, I stood
his friend whenever I could, by try
ing to do more than my own share
of duty, and covering up his short
comings ; but I.couliLu't always be
*t hand, of course.
<Jti iiiglit when it was blowing
<]ufte fresh, and I was at the wheel,
the captain was up, and had all
bands potting reefs in the topsails.
The men had laid down on deck,
and were manning the halyards to
hoist awav, when poor Hastings,
instead of the reef-iackle, let go the
v weather foretopaall brace, and away
went the yard fore and aft. IIow
• ever, by luffing up saiartly, we
managed to get it checked in "again
witliOHt earning away anything.
But Capt. Phelps, frothing at the
mouth, vowed he would tar the
• clumsy lubber's hide that did it,
and would ride him down like a
maintack. lie rushed at Hastings
with a piece of ratline stuff, and
brought it dowu , with H terrific
cut, over bis Deck and shoulders.
As he raised it again to repeat the
Mow, while all hands stood looking
on, uuahed into silence, a voice
from aloft roared out:
"Hold your hand !"
The sound, [which was wonder
fully loud and clear, seemed to come
down oat of the maintop.. The cap
tain fell back aft, so as to look up,
but could see nothing.
there 1" he yelled, in a
rage. -
No answer.
"Maintop, there 1"
' Halloa 1" was answered spite
"Corce down on deck J"
"Couie up here and see how you
like ill '
The captain's rage was now fear*
ful to behold.
"Who's aloft there ? "Who is it,
Mr. Kiiynoi r' 3 he inquired of the
mate. - V" } „
".Nobody that 1 know of, air-"
answered the officer. "They're all
Lere in sight."
The men looked from one to an
other, butAhe number was correct.
The second mate without waiting
for orders, spraug up aloft and look
ed over the top-rim, then made the
circuit of it, lookiog all arouud the
mast-head, and .reported himself
alone. The captain dropped his
rope' 6 end and wept cbelow, his
mi ml in H strange chaos of rage and
fear and Hastings further
b'i;itiug for that night.
But!* few days were sufficient for
tlnxc ifitnin to forget Iris fears, and
1 tnyseK was the next victim of his
wrath, lie had ordered me to make
it laudyard knot in the end of an old,
r rgged rope, to be used for a lash
ing somewhere. I did so, and re
turned it to hiii), telling him I had
made the best job of it that I could.
"Well, if that's your best," said
he, "you're as much of a lubber as
2 onr partner, Hastings. I'll dock
you both tocr'oary seaman's pay."
In vain 1 remonstrated, saying
that the roue was too much worn
ami jagged to make a neat piece of
work.
"Jagged, is it ? Well, I'll finish
it up over your lubberly back."
'Ofo you wont ?•" sung out a
voice from behind the long boat.
lie rushed round in the direction
of the sound, but there was no one
there.
"Who WHS that that spoke V" he
ciied. k -Lf I knew who he was I'd
cut his heart oat."
"ill, he! would ye ?" was aus
wert-d doiHvtdy—from the main-
J op, no \.
.JVtTV. A—l, „-r . •
] |' Tin T i HI „
j It was broad daylight, and all
: could sec that there was no one m>
( there. I was quite as much start
led and mystified as my tyrant
! could possibly be/but the diversion
; served as good a purpose as 011 the
1 previous occasion, for ho did not at
tack me again. Had he done so I
! meant to resist, and grapple with
Mm, if it cost me my life.
j That night the Captain's slum
bers were disturbed by a tierce cry,
| which appeared to come in at the
j side light in his state room, left
l open for fresh air. The cry had
| been heard by the mate on the quar
i ter-dedk, and by Hastings, at the
, wheel, who could give no explana
tion of it, and seemed to share his
i astonishment !and fear, when he
; rushed on "deck and looked vainly
! over the quarter in search of the
' cause.
From that day he was harassed
and persecuted at every turn by an
"Invisible presence," which gave
him no peace of his life. Whether
oil deck Or below he found no es
cape from it, and especially when
he began tJ abuse or swear at any
of the ship's company the voice of
the hidden champion invariable
took their part, the insolent laugh
rang in his ear on every such occa
sion, seeming to come from over
head.
But no such manifestation ever
troubled us in the forecastle, nor
did the unearthly voice ever ad
dress any one on board except Capt.
Thelps. The more supersticious
part of our crew would rather have
bomo his.tyrannical treatment than
have lived in a haunted ship, while
some of lis welcomed a friend in
this unaccountable spiritual pre
sence, or whatever it might he.
The captain's angry passions were
to some degree chocked by it, though
now and then they broke forth so
suddenly thai the object of his fury
received a blow befoie it could inter
fere. We had arrived within -a
couple of days' sail of the English
coast., when, becoming exasperated
by some blunder of Hastings, ho
hurled a belaying pin, which struck
him on the head. The poor fellow
suddenly clapped both hands to the
spot with a yell and rushed into the
forecastle. The captain, after hav
ing thrown the missile, appeared,
as I thought, surprised at not hear
ing anything, and 1 noticed hi*
glace nervously aloft. But still
hearing nothing he recovered his
courage and ordered Mr. Haynor "to
"call that man omdeck again."
The mate, getting no answer to
his call, went below and found
Hastings delirious. He reported
that be believed the man 10 be in a
critical condition, and the captain
directed him to do whatever lie
thought best for his relief. I think
Capt. Phelps, like some other Laid
cases that I have sailed with, did
not dare venture into the forecastle
himself, for fear that he might nev
er get out again alive.
That night it became necessary to
call all hands out to reef again, and
while we were on the yards a thrill
ing cry arose from the bows, such
as might wefl have been raised by a
maniac. A humau form was seen
by several of us erect on the rail,
near the fore-swifter, and then a
loud splash was heard in the water
under our bow.
Mr. Raynor and the captain, who
were on deck, rushed to the sid6 ; a
hat was seen for a moment bobbing
up on the crest of the sea, arid the
same dreadful yell of insanity was
repeated, even more shrill than be
fore. Captain Phelps echoed the
cry, but faintly, and fell iusensible
to the deck.
Mr. Itaynor hailed us on the top-
yard with a voice like a trump
et blast—"Lay down from aloft!
Clear away the small boat!"
We thought the mate was quite
as mad as the poor suicide ; and so
he was for the moment. By the
time we reached tbo deck he was
ready to countermand the order.
Kvery thing was hidden in darkness,
the wind and sea fast increasing;
and it was hardly possibly, even
then, for the clumsy little boat to
live. The captain, still unconscious,
was carried below, with many a
muttered wish that he might never
come up again ; anu bitter wore the
oaths of vengeaDie, mingled with
kind words and tears for our de
parted messmate, thai went round
among our wakeful little circle dur
iug that stormy, dismal night.
When the Hull pilot boarded us,
forty-eight hours afterward, Capt.
Phelps was at hi 3 post, trying to
look like himself, but still palo and
trembling. The mate told us that
he should have him arrested as soon
as we arrive in port. But I think
he must have relented and connived
at his escape, for he was missing be
fore the ship was fairly secured. I
don't think he was ever brought to
justice, though I did not wait to
see. I was glad enc ugh to shake
the dust of the Norway off my feet,
audto forget, if possible, the histo
ry of the voyage.
But I ofteu found myself, while
on subsequent voyages, puzzling my
brain to account for the strange
phenomena of which I have spoken.
Five years passed away and I was
none the wiser in that respect, when
1 found myself in Liverpool, wneve
I had arrived from a South Ameri
can voyage and had been paid otT
with fifty pounds—a considernblo
sum for me to have in my posses-
sion at one time.
Strolling along the streets at, ear
ly evening, ready for anything in
the way of amusement that might
turn up, my attention was caught
by a poster anuouueing the per
formance of "Prof. lfolbrook, the
unrivalled una world-renowned ven
triloquist. ' I hud novel* peon a
performance of t hat sort; but after
reading the bill 1 resolved to go. 1
was just iu time when I readied the
hall of exhibition, and taking a
ticket I entered and took a seat. I
thought the professor's entertain
ment the most wonderful thiug I
had ever seen or heard. After a va
riety of sounds and voices had been
imitated with marvelous skill, he
informed us that he would hold a
conversation with an imaginary per
son up the chimney. Wheu the re
sponsive "Ila, ha !'' eamo down I
was startled to such a degree as to
rise from my seat. It was the same
voice, in precisely the same peculi
ar tones that I bad heard so many
times from the Norway's maintop.
A minute later, the professor hav
ing fluished his part, came forward
to the front of the stage ; and, in
spite of his flowing beard and other
disguises, I recognized one whom 1
had supposed to be dead five years
before.
"Jack Hastings I" saul I, aloud,
forgetting-, iu my excitement, where
I was.
"Sit down !" J'ut him out!" cried
a dozen voices at ouce.
I subsided, of course, but not be
fore 1 bad received a sign of recog
nition from the ventriloquist. When
the performance was over he beck
oned to ine, and in the privacy of
his own rooui grasped my hand with
a hearty pressure.
"Hastings,'" r asked, "how in
the name ot miracles were you sav
ed ?" ,
"Saved! Where?"';
"When you jumped overboard
raving mad."
He laughed—his own natural, hear
ty laugh ; not the unearthly one
which he sent down from chimneys
and mastheads.
"1 never jumpted overboard, Ash
tcD," said he ; "and I never was
any more mad than I ain at this
moment. It was only a plan to
frighten old Phelps, and I think it
succeeded but too well. If ho had
been tried for his life and T had
thought him in danger, I should
lmve appeared in court and fright
ened hitn again to save his life.
But he could not be found, and I
never heard of him since. My mad
ness was all a sham, and the man
overboard was only a bundle of old
duds, surmounted by my old hat.
I slipped down into the forepeak
ami lay concealed lili the night af
ter the ship arrived, when 1 stole
out and went ashore. Of course
you understand the cries you
heard V"
"Certainly : and the other strange
sounds on board. Your ventrilo
qaish explains the whole matter,"
"I performed in most of the cities
and large towns in England before
I knew you ; but I was then dissi
pated in my habits, and squandered
all that I made. While on one of
my spices I shipped and went to
sea. and that is how you found me
in Cronstadt. But I was never
stock to make a sailor of. Since I
have returned I have done wed and
saved money, and you must allow
that I acquit myself better on this
stage than I did on board the Nor*
way."
And that's the only haunted ship
that ever I was in. I've heard of
others, but probably those case 3
might all be explaned in some simi
lar way.
A SILENCED FATHER.
The other day a boy about fifteen
years of age entered a grocery store
and after looking around for a few
minutes he secreted a loaf of bread
under bis coat and started out. lie
was overhauled on the street by the
grocer, who was shouting for an of
ficer, when the lad's father came
along and cried out :
"What! Is it my Thomas ? Has
my Thomas dome to be a thief ?
Take him to the station at once!"
"You want him locked op, do
you V" asked the grocer.
"I do ! A child of mine that steals
shall go to the prison. Thomas is a
wild bad boy."
"And who has made me so ?"
cried the boy as he looked around
on the crowd. "Mother—mother
died three years ago, and father
there hasn't spoke one kind word to
any of the children since ! I havn't
slept in the house for months ! LOOK
at the bruises on my arms I"
"Thomas, you know I'm kind to
all of you," replied the father, as
the lad bared his arms.
"Kind ! Have you ever read us a
word about Heaven, as m—mother
used to ? Have you ever seen her
grave but the ence ? Have you
sent us to school ? When I've
worked haven't you pounded me
till I gave up the money ?
"But—but Thomas you arc a
thief," stammered the father.
44 1—1 haven't got a shirt to my
name," continued the boy u be
threw open his coat, "and Sam and
Mary are worse oIT, 'cause they nro
barefooted. There hasn't been lira
'or wood in our house for two days,
1 and when 1 came hero to ?t.eal this
bread the children were in bed shiv
ering and starving. If you don't
believe it, come along with me!''
The crowd believed it ; there
weto tears in the boy's eyes and n
quiver to his chin, uod when the
father went to remonstrate, a man
in the crowd seized him, shook his
heels in the air and yelled :
"You old Satan, you are a loafer
and a gutter drunkard, ank I know
it, and if you ever lay hand on one
o' the children again I'll follow you
I to Texas but what I'll break overy
bono in your body."
"Let the boy go!'' cried the
crowd, and lie was released. More,
he was given more bread and pro
visions than be could carry ho;uo at
one load.
|
Fashionable Preaching. — As
be was ascending tho pulpit steps,
one of the elders button-holed him
to whisper an additional caution.
J "The liquor dealer has just come
j into the church, and he giyes us a
: lift sometimes. I wish you would
! not he particular to allude to the
whiskey business, or tho temper
i ance question." The young minis
ter, geiting fairly frightened to see
the moral ground thus steadily nar
rowing before biiu, inquired :
44 Whom or what shall I preach
against, then ?" Tho elder's reply
! came like an air of triumph,
j "Preach against the Mormons ;
they haven't got a friend in town !"
Wilat She Took.—A girl in St.
Joseph, Mo., went to a drug store
lo buy arsenic with which to kill
herself. The clerk happened to
know that she had quarrelled with
her lover, aud he guessed her pur
pose. lie gave her 2orn starch in
stead of arsenic, and hurried out to
tell her lover. The 1 >ver repented
having grieved the girl, went to her
house, found her lying on tho sofa
waiting in vain to die of a dose of
coin 6tarcb, and made up with her.
