'Hallowe'en at Merryvale', 1916
by Alice Hale Burnett,

'Keep perfectly still', whispered Chuck
as Hopie came toward them

The boys screamed with laughter as the
queer-looking things bumped about on the table

'Keep this until I am gone, then hold it over
yonder candle light', she ordered

'Three cheers for Hopie!'
shouted all the boys
