Show Mrs. Coutts' Strange Belief. In London they tell this animal ghost story. A member of the famous liatik-hig liatik-hig house of Coutts was extremely fond of a tame robin that came and fed out of his hand. The bird died before be-fore the hanker did, but Mrs. Coutts, who afterward married the duke of Devonshire, held that the bird appear- ' ed at the window of the room Mr. Coutts had occupied, and when she was dying she begged to be taken to tlie room in question so that 'she might again see the phantom robin. Mrs. Coutts, however, always believed that the apparition was her husband in bird form. |
