This house, a concrete structure, was built by J. B. A rant several years ago. Mr. Arant and sife lived there until Mr. Arant's death in Cam den some ydars later. The hoit?? was next occupied "by I- I. Adams and family who lived there until shout two years ai;o. W1I liam Robert". Mr. Adam's sen, reports that no unusual noises were . heard while ibcy lived there. M. A. Mangum. who next occupied the house, says that he didn't hear anything of this nature while he wasresiding there. Mr. Dowips, wlto Just moved into the house two weeks ago. says "1 stayed there atone for the first three flights. tis my wife was in the hospital in Charlotfe. t heard these myg. t? rious knocks each night, but - didnot report them to anyone. > "After my wife casne home, she noticed the noises the very, first night and naturally she was fright ened.
