[This is a completely accurate reference to what had happened with Mrs. Clegg in the morning of the same day. Everything is properly and accurately represented. It is the best thing about the sitting perhaps, though there are many good things in it.] [The next incident concerns other people--and I usually omit these--but I propose to include this one.] About the lady he tried to help--the one that he didn't want Feda to tell who he was (p. 241). He was helping through a man who had got drowned. This lady had had no belief nor nothing in spiritual things before. The guides brought her to Feda, that she might speak with a dear friend of hers. I helped him, he says, and got both of his initials through to her--E. A. O. J. L.--Do I know these people? Yes, you write a lot to the lady. [I remembered afterwards that I had had some correspondence with a lady who was told at a sitting, apparently by Raymond, that I knew a Dr. A. She was and is a stranger, but for this curious introduction.] O. J. L.--Is A the surname? Yes, the spirit's, not the lady's. The lady doesn't know that he [Raymond] is telling you this. And she doesn't know that he helped her. He says, It's for your own use, father. It's given her a new outlook on life. O. J. L.--I have no idea who she is. Can you get her name? Oh yes, she's a lady called Mrs. D. [Full name given easily, but no doubt got from the sitter in ordinary course.] And before, you see, she was living a worldly life. She was interested in a way, but not much. She never tried to come into it. When she came, she thought she would have her fortune told. Raymond was waiting for her to come, and brought up the right conditions at once. The man was a nice man, he liked him, and he wanted to bring her into it. The man was fond of her. Raymond has been helping him a lot. He says, I can only help in a small way, but if you could go round and see the people just on the verge of learning something! I can't help them in a big way, but still, it's something important even what I can do. For every one I bring in like that lady, there will be a dozen coming from that. O. J. L. (still remembering nothing about these people.)--Did the man drown himself? Oh no, he wented down in a boat; they nearly all wented down together. The lady wasn't expecting him--she nearly flopped over when he came. O. J. L.--Was he related to the lady? No, but he had been the biggest thing in her life. He says it seemed as though she must have felt something, to make her write to you. O. J. L.--However did Raymond know that she had written to me? Feda doesn't know. (_Sotto voce._--Tell Feda, Yaymond.) Do you believe me, father, I really can't tell you how I know some things. It's not through inquiry, but sometimes I get it just like a Marconi apparatus receives a message from somewhere, and doesn't know where it comes from at first. Sometimes I try to find out things, and I can't.
