Another of my ancient haunts I revisited with much interest was the Palais Clary, in the Herrngasse, which of old had been the home of the British Legation^ for a good many years. Princess Clary kindly took us all over the house, built, with many complicated staircases and passages, round two long narrow court- yards. I had first known it in the sunshine of young, insouciant days, but although it contains some fine rooms and has the dignified air common to old Austrian family homes, it cannot e...ven on the showing of its owners — who now, I believe, live almost entirely at Venice — be accounted a cheerful habitation. The Princess told me a curious story about it of which I recollect the general outline. She and her husband had been away from Vienna for some time and the house had been shut up. Before returning she had sent her housekeeper — a thoroughly trustworthy, intel- ligent person, who had been long in her service — to prepare for her arrival. The woman affirmed that, happening casually to look out across the courtyard, she had distinctly seen, in the broad daylight, a group of persons, in strange old-fashioned clothes, seated round a table near a window exactly facing her at the further end of the yard.
