(Pointing to A.) She is related to _him_. She puts her
hand on his shoulder. She is very proud of what he is
doing at the present time. He has been a great help
to you. Since the passing away of him who is loved by
you both, he has looked on spiritualism with much more
respect, because previously it has not touched his heart.
It is not only a thing of the head, it is now a thing of
the heart.
She suffered terribly before passing away. She bore her
suffering patiently.
She put her finger on her lips and says: "I am so proud of
O.!" (Medium puts one finger on middle of lips.)
It has always been what I thought: the triumph (?) has
been a long time coming, but it will come greater than had
been anticipated. There have been difficulties. I am glad
of success. It will come greater than before. The book
that is to be will be written from the heart, and not the
head. But the book will not be written now. NOT NOW! NOT
NOW! NOT NOW! (loud). Written later on. THE BOOK which is
going to help many and convert many. The work done already
is big. But what is coming is bigger.

(Paul, sending a message to K. K.:--)
I have been drilling her to link up. You don't know what
it is. It is like teaching people to transmit messages by
the telegraph. Don't let the boy come, let Granny come.
(The medium here imitated Paul's manner of sitting down
and pulling up the knees of his trousers.) She laughs at
the idea of being drilled.
He says (Paul still communicating): You know, little
Mother, you wonder why I was taken; but it is a great
deal better like this. Thousands of people can be helped
like this. You are the link, and the means of reaching
thousands of mothers.
(Then 'Moonstone' was understood to say:--)
Returning to Madam (_i.e._ the old lady again, and medium
turning to M. F. A. L.), she says: "I am so glad you not
only told him what you did--this is not to you but some
one away (finger on lips), somebody she will not give--and
reached out as you did."
This is from Madam. She is going away.
M. F. A. L.--My love to her.
No, no, no, she does not go away; she stands back, to let
some one else come forward--like actors take turns at a
theatre.
[Then an impersonation of my Uncle Jerry was represented,
with the statement, "Your husband will know who he is";
but this part of the record is omitted as comparatively
unimportant. It was unintelligible to the sitter.--O. J.
L.]
(Then a new control came in, which was by K. K. understood
to be 'Redfeather.' When he arrived, the medium smacked
his hands and spoke to K. K.:--)
I come dis little minute to try experiment. If we succeed,
all right; if we don't, don't mind. There will be some
difficulties.
You know me? (To K. K.)
K. K.--Yes. It is 'Redfeather.'
Glad to see you better. You used to feel--a hand on your
head. It was a little girl. It was your boy who brought
her. Now I go. Just talk a little.
