cigar store. Mr. Hoger, a shoemaker, living next door to Mrs. Gibson's,

told her at the time she moved into the house, that she would see a crazy

man in Herriges house and not to be afraid of him. Mrs. Charnes, living

next door but one, for seventeen years, laughed at her, when she asked

about the crazy man living locked up in Herriges house, as though making

light of the whole matter.
