He was suspected of too frequent visits to the company's store of rum and placed in irons. Twenty years later a poker game in the ordnance storeroom was hastily concluded when rock, hurled by an unseen hand, BOSTON, Oct. 31 (UP. If the ghostly and infamous lady in treads the ramparts Fort Warren in Boston harbor this Hallowe'en she'll make an abrupt and Perhaps, fatal with a nation's foremost spook hunters. In the eerie area 'twixt the ancient battlement's black arch and the dank corridor dungeons will be hidden Edward Rowe Snow, an historian who has spent (16 years and nine canoes chasing and spirits supposedly hauntinge the Boston harbor islands.

Equipped with a witch's traditional broomstick, he plans to use it cudgel 'fashion, evening a dozen scores with this dame in widow's weeds who sought to slay two Union soldiers and drove GI raving mad in the final days of World War I. Snow is entering the hunt with open mind because his research has revealed these facts: During the Civil war, one Capt. Andrew Lanier was confined with several hundred other Confederate soldiers in Fort perately plotting to free her love, his slim and pretty wife stole north from Crawfordville, obtained a man's clothing from a Boston sympathizer and, armed the with a fort pistol, under cover contrived of to darkness reach 3 in small boat in which were several picks and shovels.

One recent afternoon, Snow, seeking respite from his labors on his latest book, "A Pilgrim Returns to Cape Cod," decided to visit the fort.

During his stroll his foot slipped through a water -worn bit of masony, uncovering black passageway that led down through what was apparently a solid granite wall. With a hastily procured rope, Snow lowered himself down the aperture, so narrow that at times it seemed he might be trapped and become a ghost himself. Fifteen feet below the fort's bastion a horizontal passage, 90 feet long and scarcely high enough to crawl through, led toward the black archis. grim chamber wherein Lanier was sentenced to die. "If there is a ghostly lady," Snow said, "that's where she's hidden all these years.

There was the smell of death in that passage. There were marks that could have been footprints, although the opening I came down apparently was the only way you could get into th epassage. But the most curious thing I found was a broken shovel. It was rusty and of ancient design. It looked much like one of those brought to the fort in Civil war days by the lady in black."

the security council should ensure the effective implementing of the principles laid down in paragraphs 1 and 2 above. "4.

Mr. Madsen said those who use the heaters will return them to the owners when they again have sufficient heat from The sourcernace put out other, of action was compiled from a house to house survey made by a citizen's committee Wednesday. Mr. Madsen said. He estimated about a third of this number were out of action for some time to come because owners were able to remove the furnace fan and fan motor before the water flooded them.

The furnaces are oil. Homeowners today were believed to be organizing for some sort of united action on the matter. Several declared statements to the effect that the homes would be "adequately drained" were made to them by FHA sales representatives at the time they purchased their houses. City Engineer Thomas Latimer Jr. completed a preliminary examination Wednesday and will make recommendations to the city commission when he gets additional engineering data on grades and other factors.

He refused to comment on the situation before making his report. Some sources believe one method of at least greatly improving the situation would be to take off all surface water possible by means of improved surface drainage system. The lake which formed north of Third North all must now be carried off by the submerged 24-inch drain installen WPA days. Many believe this accumulation could be drained by a surface ditch, and thus take much more load off the submberged drain but a confirmation of this awaited compilation of more engineering data.
