PREMONITIONS OF DEATH.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR.'] SIR,—A guest of note died suddenly a few years ago while on a visit to a host of note. The night before, when he was apparently in his usual health, he and his wife. were both somewhat disturbed when going to bed by the sound of hammering, apparently in the room above. In the morning at breakfast they asked whether people had been packing in the room above, and were told that the room in question was empty, and that no one could have been in it. In the course of the day the guest died suddenly. (Cf. article on " Witch- craft and Second-Sight" in the Spectator of July 18th.)—
[Our correspondent supplies us, but not for publication, with the name of the guest. The incident is curious, but we cannot think more than a coincidence.—ED. Spectator.]
