About the author:
Edmund Gill Swain (1861 – 29 January 1938) was an English cleric and author. As a chaplain of King's College, Cambridge, he was a colleague and contemporary of the scholar and author M. R. James, and a regular member of the select group to whom James delivered his famous annual Christmas Eve reading of a ghost story composed specially for the occasion. Swain collaborated with James on topical skits for amateur performance in Cambridge, but he is best known for the collection of ghost stories he published in 1912, entitled The Stoneground Ghost Tales. He also wrote a history of Peterborough Cathedral.Swain was born in Stockport, Cheshire, and educated at Manchester Grammar School and Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he read Natural Sciences. He was ordained deacon in 1885 and priest in 1886 at Rochester.
