During the trance his eyes were apparently closed all the time; and when speaking to anyone he 'looked' at them with his eyelids screwed up. Sometimes a change of control occurred. While that was taking place, he sat quiet, and usually held K.'s and M.'s hands until another sudden jerk occurred, when he let go and started talking. The sitting was rather disjointed, and most of it apparently not of much importance, but for a few minutes in the middle it was very impressive. It then felt to me exactly as if my hand was being held in both Raymond's, and as if Raymond himself was speaking in his own voice. My right hand was being held, but even if I had had it free I could not possibly have taken notes under the circumstances. (M. F. A. L. adds that neither could she nor anyone, while that part of the sitting was going on.) Peters spoke often very quickly, and sometimes indistinctly, so that the notes are rather incomplete. (To this O. J. L. adds that it was Alec's first experience of a sitting, and that, even with experience, it is difficult to take anything like full notes.) _Report of Peters Sitting in Mrs. Kennedy's Room, at 11 a.m. on Saturday, 23 October 1915_ (Revised by the Sitters) _Present_--MRS. KENNEDY (K. K.), LADY LODGE (M. F. A. L.), ALEC M. LODGE, and the Medium--VOUT PETERS REPORT BY A. M. L. In a short time Peters went into trance, and 'Moonstone' was understood to be taking control. He first made some general remarks:-- Good morning! I generally say, "Good evening," don't I? Don't be afraid for Medie; he has been prepared since six o'clock this morning. Magnetism has to be stored up, and therefore it is best to use the same room and the same furniture every time. Then he spoke to K. K.:-- Will you call on little woman close to? It will mean salvation to two people. [Abbreviated.] (K. K. understood.) Then the medium took M.'s hand. Somebody not easy to describe; old lady; not tall; grey hair, parted in centre; grey eyes; nose thin; mouth fairly large and full. This describes her as she was before she passed away. Had big influence on your early life. Good character; loving, but perhaps lived in narrow outlook; not only a mother to her own belongings, but she mothered every man, woman, or child she came into contact with. She is here this morning and has been before. Is it not your Mother? M. F. A. L.--If it is my Mother, it is a great pleasure to me. She has been with you and comforted you through this trial. She has been, and will go on, looking after the boy. You must not think she is not just as much with you because she has no body. She is just as much your mother. She _has_ a body, though it is different.
