MORE than two thousand years ago, at a time when the people in the British Isles and in most parts of Western Europe were living the lives of savages, occupied in fighting, hunting, and fishing, dwelling in rude huts, clad in skins, ignorant of everything that we call civilization, Rome was the centre of a world in many ways as civilized as ours is now, over which the Roman people ruled. The men who dwelt in this one city, built on seven hills on the banks of the river Tiber, gradually conquered all Italy. Then they became masters of the lands round the Mediterranean Sea: of Northern Africa and of Spain, of Greece, Egypt, Asia Minor and the Near East, and of Western Europe. The greatness of Rome and of the Roman people does not lie, however, in their conquests. In the end their conquests ruined them. It lies in the character, mind, and will of the Romans themselves.In the history of the ancient world the Romans played the part that men of our race have played in the history of the modern world. They knew, as we claim to know, how to govern: how to govern themselves, and how to govern other people. To this day much in our laws and in our system of government bears a Roman stamp. They were great soldiers and could conquer: they could also hold and keep their conquests and impress the Roman stamp on all the peoples over whom they ruled. Their stamp is still upon us. Much that belongs to our common life to-day comes to us from them: in their day they lived a life not much unlike ours now. And in many respects the Roman character was like the British. We can see the faults of the Romans, if we cannot see our own; we can also see the virtues. We can see, too—looking back at them over the distance of time, judging them by their work and by what is left to us of their writings—how the mixture of faults in their virtues explains the fall as well as the rise of the great power of Rome...

Welcome to Haunting Tales, recorded during "Literally, a Haunted House," produced each October to raise funds for The Culbertson Mansion State Historic Site in New Albany, Indiana. In 1867, for about $120,000, William S. Culbertson built his three-story, twenty-five room home. With its hand-painted ceilings, carved rosewood staircase, and marble fireplaces, his home re-flected his affluence. After his death in 1892, the mansion and its contents were sold. A series of owners painted white paint over the hand-painted ceilings and boarded up rooms. Since 1985 this annual event, rated a "Top 10 Halloween Haunted House" in *USA Today* 1991, generates funds to restore the mansion to its Victorian era glory. While brave souls wait to enter the 'haunted' carriage house, many visit the formal parlor to hear spooky stories which could have been told in Victorian days. *Haunting Tales*, recorded over a series of haunted house evenings, features stories t
