that he remembers it.
A very faint rap is heard. The Medium: There is a rap. It seems to be there again. (Indicating the spot to which attention was previously called by Mr. Sellers.) The Medium again importunes, first, 'Mr. Seybert' and next 'the Spirits' 'to rap;' and the importunities are repeated. Three raps are distinctly but faintly heard. Mr. Sellers: I heard them. They sounded somewhat like the others, not exactly. The Medium: I heard one rap, but it is nothing for me to hear them; I want you gentlemen to hear them. Mr. Sellers: Probably we will hear them again. While Mr. Sellers and Mr. Furness are conversing, several raps are heard, though less distinct than the preceding ones. The Medium: There they are as though right under the glass. (After a silence of forty seconds): Now I hear them again very light--oh, very light. Mr. Furness, with the permission of the Medium, places his hand upon one of her feet. The Medium: There are raps now, strong--yes, I hear them. |
