The Refugee in the Basement

Many refugees (former slaves) escaping on the Underground Railroad once stayed in the mansion basement.  One woman seems to have been injured, likely in her attempt to escape from the south.  She received a head wound and was in bad shape when she arrived here.  Although the staff of the mansion tried everything to save this lady she eventually died of her wound.  

Today many have seen or heard this woman in the basement.  She is not an angry or resentful spirit, quite the contrary in fact.  She was most pleased with the attention she received here and looks upon the mansion as her home.  She is a watchful guardian spirit of the mansion and has only become angry with people who have been bent on doing the house harm.  She is normally friendly to ghost investigators, however she has been known to play a prank or two now and again.
