Within days of his death, servants reported seeing a specter roaming the property. They concluded it was Petrus because they heard the tapping of his cane and his wooden leg. Several stories of sightings have come down to us; the stories are set in different time periods yet have common elements. The first version of the story takes place during the Civil War. A church sexton encountered the ghost of Petrus and was so frightened he ran screaming into the street, but drowning out his screams were the peals of the bell in St. Mark’s tower. When a few brave men went into the church to see who had rung the bell, they found no one there—and the rope had been torn off too high for any human to reach and pull. The next day, they found the other piece of the bellrope on Petrus’ grave. In another version of the story, the events are essentially the same but transpired during the 1960s, according to an article in the November 17, 2004, New York Sun newspaper.Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
