Tonopah - Silver Rim Ele.
School - Charles M. Keller, principal from
January 1985 - June 1992, learned of strange happenings when he arrived
for duty - lights going off for no reason during the day and strange
things at night. Teachers working late or at night would have
feelings that someone was watching them, strange rapping sounds, and
one teacher saw an apparition of a man. Mr. Keller wrote a ghost story
called, "Jake, The Ghost", as a Halloween story for the children,
teachers, and staff in 1985. The story brought forth more reports
of strange behavior from the staff. One teacher working late one
evening heard scuffing footsteps coming down the hall toward her
classroom. When she investigated she saw nothing but the steps were
still coming toward her! She was so scared she climbed out the
window, ran across the street to one of the neighbors and called her
husband for help! It was not until the summer of 2006 Mr. Keller
learned the identity of the ghost. He is a writer of children's poems
and stories and wanted further research on his story of the
ghost. In September 1903 there was a Chinese race riot. The
local labor union for some reason decided to run all the Chinese people
out of town. During the riot a Chinese man by the name of Ping
Ling was badly beaten and hit over the right eye with a hatchet.
He decided to walk out of town and leave the area. He bled to
death on the road. That road now is the same one that is between Silver
Rim School and the Mormon LDS Church. Silver Rim School was not built
until 1980. Where the ghost of Ping Ling was until that time is
uncertain. Why he chose to take up residence of the school is another
mystery. Mr. Keller is certain Ping Ling means no harm to the people in
the building. He is not seen or heard during the day when there
are activities in the school. But at night he is quite active and
curious. However, Mr. Keller made many trips back to the school at
night, especially during the winter, to check security and the heating
system. He never encountered Ping Ling on any of his trips. He could
only surmise Ping Ling respected him.
