Note 1 — THE GHOSTS OF KENEGIE.
Reading edition
The following account of this ghost-laying is given as related by the old tinner,1 except where his dialect might be unintelligible to general readers. It is curious that he made the spirit-queller address the ghost by the uncouth word “Nomine domme,” which he thought a proper name. One cannot doubt that the expression used by the original story-teller was (In) nomine Domini, which became corrupted, as above, by the usage of more ignorant droll-tellers of recent times.
