The following story is reprinted from Famous Modern Ghost Stories. Ed. Dorothy Scarborough. New York: G.P. Putnam’s Sons, 1921.

And the will therein lieth, which dieth not. Who knoweth the mystery of the will, with its vigor? For God is but a great will pervading all things by nature of its intentness. Man doth not yield himself to the angels, nor unto death utterly, save only through the weakness of his feeble will.
