IF A PICTURE FALLS OFF THE WALL, A DEATH IN THE FAMILY WILL
FOLLOW. OUR NEGRO MAID, CELANE D ENY, BELIEVED THIS AND
TAUGHT IT TO US CHILDREN. I HAVE HEARD THIS FROM OTHER
PEOPLE; THE ONES WHO BELIEVED IT USUALLY SAID THAT
ROBERT E. LEE'S PICTURE FELL OFF THE WALL THE DAY HE
DIED. THE DAY MY GRANDMOTHER DIED, 2 PAINTINGS FELL
FROM THE WALL AT MY HOUSE (BREAKING FRAME, GLASS, ETC.)
THE MAID I HAD THEN WAS TERRIFIED.
