Grandmother Hallie had a small wooden box, kept in the little bedroom upstrairs on the west side, that she called "Little Emma's Box." She and her daughter Virginia used to tell us that the room was haunted by the ghost of little Emma Dunbar, because that was the box that used to hold her toys. They both swore that the sounds of a child playing would periodically come from that room.
