"A weird tradition was extant about the middle of this century concerning the "Maiden's Tomb." According to the writer of the MSS., it was to the effect that the stones of the monument were in the first instance riven by the ghost of the deceased lady as she rose from it in obedience to the magic arts and incantations of a friend of her brother, a man skilled in necromancy and having, like Manfred, "the power of bringing back the spirits of the dead." The lady appeared, when, it is said, "the solid stones of the tomb began to crack and split with a loud noise"; but, alas ! only to reproach the brother, at whose instigation his friend had called her forth, with being the indirect cause of her death, brought on by grief at the infidel opinions he held, and to exhort him to repentance for his crimes, &c."
The Maiden's Tomb, Perivale Churchyard, c. 1890.
