GHOSTS IN THE AUSTIN CAPITOL
The
Austin Capitol Bldg., completed in 1888, has borne witness to many an
historic event as well as countless trials and tribulations of
human
interest and endeavor.
Most historical landmarks of this character usually have a ghost or two lurking in the shadows, do they not? In
1903, while serving as State Comptroller, ROBERT M. LOVE was shot to
death at his desk in the Capitol by a deranged former employee.
Many visitors, staff, and Security Officers have reported a man dressed in the attire of the day of the early 1900's walking the halls, through walls, staring out windows, and even speaking "Good Day" to others while strolling thru the building...... Could
this be the ghost of Mr. Love? Or, are there many such entities, strolling
thru the halls of this hallowed building, in search of some unfulfilled
mission of their lives.....?
