Strange case at Munich.
The following case, which seems scarcely possible at the end of the nineteenth century, occurred on Tuesday at Munich. In a house in the Parkstrasse the parish priest of St Benno performed the ceremony of exorcism at the wish of a woman living there. For some time past ghostly noises have been heard in her dwelling. The good woman stated that she and her children were disturbed in their sleep by unearthly rumblings, sighs, etc. Sometimes, also, a lady in black wandered through the room, but she had only been seen by the children, and never by the woman. The priest burned incense in the haunted room, and the noises the following night had somewhat abated.
