ESHER.
Miss Anna Maria Porter, the authoress, and, sister
of the still better known writer, Jane Porter, authoress
of The Scottish Chiefs, at one period of her life resided
at Esher, in Surrey.
An aged gentleman of her
acquaintance, who lived in the same place, was accus-
tomed to visit at her house almost daily, generally
making his appearance in the evening, when he would
take a cup of tea and read the paper.
One evening Miss Porter saw.him enter the room as
usual, and seat himself at the table, but without saying
a word. She addressed some remark to him, but
received no reply, and, after a few seconds, was surprised
to see him rise and leave the room without uttering a
word.
Fearing that he might have been taken ill suddenly,
Miss Porter sent a servant to his house to make
inquiries. She sent at once, but the answer the servan!-
brought back was that the old gentleman had died
suddenly about an hour before.
Miss Anna Maria, it is avowed, believed that she had
seen an apparition, and was herself the authority for
this story.
