'
Humbug
!
'
said
Scrooge
;
and
walked
across
the
room
.
After
several
turns
,
he
sat
down
again
.
As
he
threw
his
head
back
in
the
chair
,
his
glance
happened
to
rest
upon
a
bell
,
a
disused
bell
,
that
hung
in
the
room
,
and
communicated
for
some
purpose
now
forgotten
with
a
chamber
in
the
highest
story
of
the
building
.
It
was
with
great
astonishment
,
and
with
a
strange
,
inexplicable
dread
,
that
as
he
looked
,
he
saw
this
bell
begin
to
swing
.
It
swung
so
softly
in
the
outset
that
it
scarcely
made
a
sound
;
but
soon
it
rang
out
loudly
,
and
so
did
every
bell
in
the
house
.
This
might
have
lasted
half
a
minute
,
or
a
minute
,
but
it
seemed
an
hour
.
The
bells
ceased
as
they
had
begun
,
together
.
They
were
succeeded
by
a
clanking
noise
,
deep
down
below
;
as
if
some
person
were
dragging
a
heavy
chain
over
the
casks
in
the
wine
merchant
's
cellar
.
Scrooge
then
remembered
to
have
heard
that
ghosts
in
haunted
houses
were
described
as
dragging
chains
.
The
cellar-door
flew
open
with
a
booming
sound
,
and
then
he
heard
the
noise
much
louder
,
on
the
floors
below
;
then
coming
up
the
stairs
;
then
coming
straight
towards
his
door
.
'
It
's
humbug
still
!
'
said
Scrooge
.
'
I
wo
n't
believe
it
.
'
His
colour
changed
though
,
when
,
without
a
pause
,
it
came
on
through
the
heavy
door
,
and
passed
into
the
room
before
his
eyes
.
Upon
its
coming
in
,
the
dying
flame
leaped
up
,
as
though
it
cried
'
I
know
him
;
Marley
's
Ghost
!
'
and
fell
again
.
The
same
face
:
the
very
same
.
Marley
in
his
pigtail
,
usual
waistcoat
,
tights
and
boots
;
the
tassels
on
the
latter
bristling
,
like
his
pigtail
,
and
his
coat-skirts
,
and
the
hair
upon
his
head
.
The
chain
he
drew
was
clasped
about
his
middle
.
It
was
long
,
and
wound
about
him
like
a
tail
;
and
it
was
made
(
for
Scrooge
observed
it
closely
)
of
cash-boxes
,
keys
,
padlocks
,
ledgers
,
deeds
,
and
heavy
purses
wrought
in
steel
.
His
body
was
transparent
;
so
that
Scrooge
,
observing
him
,
and
looking
through
his
waistcoat
,
could
see
the
two
buttons
on
his
coat
behind
.
Scrooge
had
often
heard
it
said
that
Marley
had
no
bowels
,
but
he
had
never
believed
it
until
now
.
No
,
nor
did
he
believe
it
even
now
.
Though
he
looked
the
phantom
through
and
through
,
and
saw
it
standing
before
him
;
though
he
felt
the
chilling
influence
of
its
death-cold
eyes
;
and
marked
the
very
texture
of
the
folded
kerchief
bound
about
its
head
and
chin
,
which
wrapper
he
had
not
observed
before
;
he
was
still
incredulous
,
and
fought
against
his
senses
.
'
How
now
!
'
said
Scrooge
,
caustic
and
cold
as
ever
.
