The Lair of the White Worm

CHAPTER II--THE CASWALLS OF CASTRA REGIS
17/17

With such strange compelling qualities, is it any wonder that there is abroad an idea that in the race there is some demoniac possession, which tends to a more definite belief that certain individuals have in the past sold themselves to the Devil?
"But I think we had better go to bed now.

We have a lot to get through to-morrow, and I want you to have your brain clear, and all your susceptibilities fresh.

Moreover, I want you to come with me for an early walk, during which we may notice, whilst the matter is fresh in our minds, the peculiar disposition of this place--not merely your grand-uncle's estate, but the lie of the country around it.

There are many things on which we may seek--and perhaps find--enlightenment.

The more we know at the start, the more things which may come into our view will develop themselves.".
