The case of Vincent Pyrwhit (short story)

  • Type: Short Story

The case of Vincent Pyrwhit is a short story by English author, Barry Pain. - AsNotedIn

The death of Vincent Pyrwhit, J P, of Ellerdon House, Ellerdon, in the county of Buckingham, would in the ordinary way have received no more attention than the death of any other simple country gentleman. The circumstances of his death, however, though now long since forgotten, were sensational, and attracted some notice at the time. It was one of those cases which is easily forgotten within a year, except just in the locality where it occurred. The most sensational circumstances of the case never came before the public at all. I give them here simply and plainly. The psychical people may make what they like of them.Barry Pain, The Case of Vincent Pyrwhit
