Puzzle 202

We are all aware of the sensory powers our dogs possess: how
emotions travel down the lead when showing; including anger and frustration, joy and pleasure. We also know the comfort we receive when our canine friends sense we are sad, grieving or ill. Psychic research is now considering whether dogs have greater power of insight than humans. I believe that this could well be the case.

A middle aged and very practical friend of ours lived in Ludlow and owned one of our dogs, Jasper. Sometimes she walked him in the grounds of Ludlow Castle, parts of which are reputed to be haunted.

One particular day, Jasper, normally an obedient little dog, was
not at her heels as expected. Looking back she saw him standing
stock~still, following with his eyes the line of the castle wall,
along which the ghost or spectre of the Lady in Grey was said to
walk. Nothing either then or subsequently would persuade Jasper
to pass that place again. ESP?
