The Black Goatee — Constance Little; Gwenyth Little

Aloysius P. Graham and his headstrong daughter move into one wing of his cousins' house without the cousin's knowledge or consent during the past World War II housing shortage. Soon all kinds of people, including a young doctor and a man in a black goatee, also sneak into the wing. Shortly after, a lamp turns on and off of its own accord and the man in the black goatee is murdered.
