Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. John Macgowan, Vol. 1 of 2: Illustrated With a Portrait
I soon found that my precautions were far from being unnecessary for I saw, by the feeble light which glim mered m the place, a form most frightful making directly towards me. My heart bounced ln my breast with terror, and swift as a bare pressed by sanguine hounds, I ran to my little sanctuary. No sooner had I entered it, but the fiend stalked up to the very door of it. The hair of my head stood upright, the blood ran down my back as cold as Greenland ice, and I looked on myself as a dead man.
