"SINCE the death of E. Groleau, who was at the time of his demise proprietor of the Globe Hotel in this city, the saloon in that hostelry has been run by Johnny Doran, the rest of the house being occupied by the widowed Mrs. Groleau. Something about this way of conducting the business seems to disturb the peaceful rest of the departed Groleau, and to rectify matters he pays nocturnal visits to his old earthly home and terrifies the inmates thereof with his plaintive cries for “rest”. Some skeptics are investigating the matter, and intend to see if this ghostly apparition does not consist of something more tangible than a departed spirit clad in a shroud."
