“First rumor of it began when the man sent to find Chester claimed he saw a woman in a wedding dress standing at the edge of the forest. She bore a screaming baby in her arms, and would not answer any of the man’s calls. She disappeared into the shadows. But the man investigated and found footprints.” Howell drank deeply. “After that, it became a family legend. And guests to the Manor reported sighting this ghostly bride in the boggy lands or under the shadows of the forest that are all about the grounds. She walks silently, they say, with a babe in one arm, and a sickle in her free hand.”
