The Rolling Shot Ghost

This is one of those WTH stories that occasionally emerge from the 19th century press. While there were plenty of Victorian urban legends and slow-news-day fantasies to be had, this story does not  follow predictable supernatural paths in its description of a strange visitant making its noisy nightly rounds at a military encampment in Murfreesborough.

WAS IT A GHOST?

A Strange Nocturnal Visitant That Defied Capture.

A True Story Which Happened During the War–the Mystery Was Never Solved.

Ed, “Sentinel”: I submit this story for your paper for publication. It is true in all its details, and of my own actual experience. I wrote it for the Youth’s Companion, and Mr. Butterworth wrote me asking for the solution, which I could not give. It being against their rules to publish anything for children that was not fully explained, it did not appear in the Youth’s Companion.
