LONG-DISTANCE CLAIRVOYANCE. 141
year the committee held their business meetings once a month at my house. On May 5, one of these meetings was to be held at 8 p.m. Between 6 and 7 p.m, I thought that I would try a little experiment in long-distance Clair- voyance, as I felt the peculiar sensation which denotes that the faculty is active. I retired into my drawing-room with the inten- tion of trying to see what one or two of the members of the committee were doing. I was able to see three of the officials in different parts of the town, and wrote briefly on a sheet of paper what I “saw” each person doing, As I did not look at the clock I headed the paper “6.30 to 6.55,” that being the time as nearly as I could estimate. A few minutes before eight o’clock I put my rough notes in an envelope, and placed it upon the committee room table. When the seven or eight members arrived, before beginning the business of the Society, I told them what I had done, and asked each of the three members whom I had seen (clairvoyantly) to kindly tell me what they had been doing between 6.30 and 7 p.m, that evening.
Each of them made a brief statement. The envelope was opened; and, as the notes therein contained were found to accurately agree
