body. But what about objective mind? Does it make its only
outward manifestations through speech and action? Can we ignore
the effect of mind on mind, when there are present none of the
ordinary media of communication? I think not.

In making the following statement concerning our part in the strange
case of Arthur Wells, a certain allowance must be made for our
ignorance of so-called psychic phenomena, and also for the fact that
since that time, just before the war, great advances have been made
in scientific methods of investigation. For instance, we did not
place Miss Jeremy's chair on a scale, to measure for any loss of
weight. Also the theory of rods of invisible matter emanating from
the medium's body, to move bodies at a distance from her, had only
been evolved; and none of the methods for calculation of leverages
and strains had been formulated, so far as I know.

To be frank, I am quite convinced that, even had we known of these
so-called explanations, which in reality explain nothing, we would
have ignored them as we became involved in the dramatic movement of
the revelations and the personal experiences which grew out of them.
I confess that following the night after the first seance any
observations of mine would have been of no scientific value whatever,
and I believe I can speak for the others also.

Of the medium herself I can only say that we have never questioned
her integrity. The physical phenomena occurred before she went into
trance, and during that time her forearms were rigid. During the
deep trance, with which this unusual record deals, she spoke in her
own voice, but in a querulous tone, and Sperry's examination of her
pulse showed that it went from eighty normal to a hundred and twenty
