    I have a question about : a haunt house

    in the sentence 'beneath the Downs', does the 'Downs' mean a city?

    Hello, Ser, welcome to the forum.
    I did a bit of research, as I do not recall coming across that fragmented sentence, and found that some kind of district in England exists called 'South Downs.' Of course, I have never visited anywhere in the United Kingdom, I merely found it on a map.
    Just out of curiosity, from what book did you read this?

    Hello,
    I realize this was posted months ago, but was wondering if you could offer any insight regarding exactly what's happening in A Haunted House. I'm doing a research project with that as the assigned piece to analyze and I can't find much information on it at all. Is it a short story? Just an excerpt? In fact, what is it saying in the most literal sense? I have no clue what or where the Downs are, do you know what wooden pigeons are? If you don't mind, email me at [email protected], becase I doubt I'll remember to check the board. I stumbled upon it on accident. Thanks.
