FOOTNOTES: [Footnote 121: Thus we have a case, regarded by the narrator as hallucinatory, in which three persons saw a figure ascending the staircase of a country rectory. The occurrence took place shortly after the return of the family from church, and the figure was supposed to be that of the rector, until it was ascertained that he was at the time in another part of the house. As, however, it was dark and the head of the figure could not be seen, the identification could hardly have been complete, and as no search was made in the upper part of the house, it seems possible that the figure was that of some person who had gained entrance to the house during the absence of the family at church.] [Footnote 122: See the article on Spirit Photographs by Mrs. Henry Sidgwick, _Proc. S.P.R._, vol. vii. pp. 268-289.] [Footnote 123: This account was originally written in answer to a series of questions on a "census" form. A few connecting words have been inserted in order to make it read consecutively.] [Footnote 124: With this may be compared an incident recorded by William Bell Scott (_Autobiographical Notes_, vol. ii. pp. 117, 118). The account is perhaps worth quoting, though the length of time which has elapsed, and the fact that it rests upon a single memory, leave to the narrative little value other than that derived from its literary associations. It should be added, however, that Mr. Scott's claim to a rational scepticism in these matters appears to be borne out by other passages in the book.
