12. _Agt._, ten small circles arranged in rows, pyramidal fashion;
_Per._ wrote only “Nothing except all the preceding ones come—too many
at once—all past ones crowding in memory.” I wish she had stated which
past one, if any, crowded most, and which came first. For it happens
that her drawing for No. 2, so different from the impressions “a
rooster” and “an elephant,” set down at the same time, also consisted of
little circles, also in rows, but more in number and enclosed within an
elliptical line.
13. _Agt._, a drinking-glass with double elliptic line at the top and
small ellipse indicating the bottom; _Per._, double elliptic line above,
same below with indefinite lines rising from the latter. The script is
more significant: “Think of a saucer, then of a cup. It’s something in
the kitchen. Too tired to see.” Pretty close. (See Figs. 72, 72a.)
The occurrence of so many correspondences, direct and oblique, among
thirteen consecutive experiments constituting the entire series
performed at one time, and these by mere accidental coincidence, is
practically unthinkable.
Later Experiments by Professor William McDougall
In the main, this review has dealt only with the period covered by
_Mental Radio_, although it has exhibited some experiments not
illustrated or even mentioned therein. A few of the special tabulations
have also included a part or all of the later tests made by Mr. and Mrs.
Sinclair, to the number of more than a hundred, the materials of which
are in my hands. When the tabulations have reached so far, the fact has
been stated.
