Mars (Planet) -- Miscellanea; Spirit writings
Gentola--I am equally rejoiced that I can see you. Ever since I have
known you and some other spirit friends, I have been curious as to your
and their appearance. I have thought of you and of them as one thinks
of physical personalities. Yet in some way I have formed nearly correct
ideas of your and their forms and features. But I must say that you are
taller than I had thought you might be.
Aaron Poole--My height is six feet and one inch, and that is nearly
the height of a particular friend of yours who has been permitted to
accompany me on this visit to Ento. This way, my blond Apollo.
Gentola--Well of all the wonders of this wonderful experience, this to
me is the most surprising. Will Cox, you dear, dear boy. Oh, I am so
glad to see you. So, so glad, and to think that after all these years,
we meet on the Planet Mars--I mean on the Planet Ento. George, do be
quiet; I shall cry if I wish to. Will, you dear boy, you are handsomer
than you were in Earth life. Oh, I wish your mother could see you, your
mother who so adored you, and who never ceases to mourn for you. While
I laugh and cry, do tell me something of yourself. Why, Will, you, too,
are crying. Don't do that. I was so surprised that I--I forgot myself;
but I won't cry any more, and you shall smile too. There, that is like
yourself.
William Cox--My dearest friend, let me call you Lady Sara, as I once
did. I am so overjoyed to meet you, so glad, so thankful to the Divine
Spirit that we both have learned that life is continuous. When at the
home of Mr. Wicks we were about to part to meet no more on Earth, you
said, "Oh, Will, promise me that if you die before I do, and shall
continue to exist, and can return to this world, that you will come to
me to tell me if there is another life than this," how little I knew of
what would come to me and to you, too, dear Lady Sara. When I passed to
the Spirit side and to my own place, almost my first Earth memory was
of my promise to you, and for your sake, and that you might be better
able to comfort my dear, sorrowing mother, I, with the assistance of
kind spirit friends, strove to reach your consciousness, and when,
after two years, we succeeded, I wept for very joy. I should so like to
talk with you indefinitely, but I must not abuse the special privilege
of this visit to you. Then, too, I am one of a Band of Spirits to whom
has been assigned the accomplishment of a certain mission, and my leave
of absence must not exceed the time specified. Be assured, dear friend,
that I never lose sight of you. Your sorrows have been my own, and when
Bernard passed to our side of life, and your condition was so critical
that we feared that you, too, might come before this Mission should be
accomplished, your friend Will was one of many who sustained you with
our strength until you regained composure and a degree of health.
