PUBLIC CLAIRVOYANCE. 99
There was a man in the circle; it was evidently his first attendance, he seemed shy and retiring. A “spirit” came for him. I described the spirit—height, age, eyes, hair, nose, dress, etc., etc.—and added, “ he was killed through a bicycle accident—not directly, but indirectly—because I ‘sense’ the fall and feel the shock ; but I also ‘ get’ a great difficulty in breathing. Furthermore, he tells me that he did not work in a shop, but at a long wide counter, such as is in a bank or insurance office.”
“Yes,” the gentleman replied, “the descrip- tion is exact; and he died of lung trouble brought on by a bad bicycle accident, and he worked in X. & Co.’s counting-house.”
I was very pleased to have given a stranger his first description; and some weeks later I gave him another, even more detailed, of his uncle.
The next description was a very unpleasant one for me. It was very much out of the ordinary as regards the “death” scene; and, as I felt all the pain, the reader will understand why I am glad that such are not met with frequently.
I gave the usual ten or eleven descriptive points of the “spirit” of a young man, and added that I was in agony all over—every
