Excerpt from Donald Ross of Heimra, Vol. 2 I will tell you this, Calum, he was say ing, in his native tongue - and speaking in rather a low tone, as if he did not wish to be overheard - that there are many strange things happen to them that have to watch through the night; and they are never men tioned; for it is not safe to mention them. You do not know who may hear-perhaps some one at the back of your shoulder. And the speaking of such things is harmful. When I was telling you, Calum, about the Woman and her overtaking me as I was on the way home from Ru Gobhar, well, it all came over me again, and it was as if someone had me by the throat again, and I could not move, no, nor say some good words to get free from her and escape. But I will tell you of another strange thing now, that did not happen to me, so that I can talk of it, and without danger to anyone.
