James Martin's Close. It was going to be one which you have most likely heard and even told. The story takes place in the time of Queen Elizabeth I. It describes how a vengeful ghost comes to a man after he steals money from a woman's grave.

The village priest moves out of his house because his wife does not like the fact that its back windows look out onto the cemetery. John Poole [1] moves into the house. He is an old widower who lives alone, does not socialize much and does not spend much money.

THE DREAM WORLD

He seems to enjoy living next to a cemetery. From one of his windows, he always watches the funerals, which usually take place at night by torchlight. The village is also home to an ugly old woman known as old mother Wilkins. Although she is rumored to be a witch, old mother Wilkins leaves a lot of money to the Church when she dies.

She also leaves a lot of money to pay for her funeral. No mourners attend it but it is witnessed by John Poole from the window of his house.

The old woman is buried wrapped in a shroud but without a coffin. At the end of the funeral, the priest throws "something that clinked" into old mother Wilkins' grave and says, "Thy money perish with thee. The sexton thinks that it looks worse than he left it the night before. A change comes over John Poole. He seems happier but also more nervous than before.

He starts going to the inn in the evening, says that he has "come into a little bit of money" and is going to move into a better house. The smith, another customer at the inn, says that he would not like to live in John Poole's current house next to the cemetery in which people have seen lights. The smith says that if he lived there, he might imagine someone like old mother Wilkins getting out of her grave and climbing up to his bedroom window.

That night, John Poole has difficulty sleeping.
