Excerpt from A Strange Record The chapel stood in a small burial ground, and she wandered round this before taking her relue tant leave of the peaceful spot. She paused in a certain place said to have been the grave of a fair young girl, whose desolate sweetheart had com mitted suicide upon it, and where afterward there sprang up a red-spotted clover to commemorate the tragedy. The grave had been trampled flat, but the blood-stained clover still flourished. Ethel plucked a specimen or two, wondering what natural explanation could account for its peculiar ity and so destroy the pretty romance - and thus wondering betook herself home.
