Telepathy and the Subliminal Self

Parapsychology -- Investigation; Telepathy
"I led the doctor straight to the White Room, where we found my mother
actually lying as in my vision. This was true, even to minute details.
"She had been seized suddenly by an attack of the heart, and would
soon have breathed her last but for the doctor's timely arrival. I
shall get my father and mother to read this and sign it."
"JEANIE GWYNNE-BRETTANY."
Mrs. Brettany's parents write:--
"We certify that the above is correct."
"S. G. GWYNNE.
"J. W. GWYNNE."
In answer to inquiries, Mrs. Brettany states further:
"The White Room in which I saw my mother, and afterwards actually
found her, was out of use. It was unlikely she should be there.
"She was found lying in the attitude in which I had seen her. I found
a handkerchief with a lace border beside her on the floor. This I had
distinctly noticed in my vision. There were other particulars of
coincidence which I cannot put here."
Mrs. Brettany's father writes further:--
"I distinctly remember being surprised by seeing my daughter in
company with the family doctor, outside the door of my residence; and
I asked, 'Who is ill?' She replied, 'Mamma.' She led the way at once
to the 'White Room,' where we found my wife lying in a swoon on the
floor. It was when I asked when she had been taken ill that I found it
must have been after my daughter had left the house. None of the
servants in the house knew anything of the sudden illness, which our
doctor assured me would have been fatal had he not arrived when he
did.
"My wife was quite well when I left her in the morning."
"S. G. GWYNNE."
Taking, as we must, the main incidents of this narrative as true, we have
either a simple case of clairvoyance on the part of Mrs. Brettany as a
child, or else, on the other hand, the subliminal self of the unconscious
mother hastened to impress the situation upon the sensitive child, and
with the definite good result which is recorded.
CHAPTER XII.
CONCLUSIONS.
In gathering up the results of these investigations, it must be stated
that in showing their relation to science there is no thought of any
detraction from the nobility and greatness of scientific labor and
achievement in the material world--that is grand almost beyond expression.
The attitude of science is conservative, and it is right; but sooner or
later it must awake to the fact that here is a new field for investigation
which comes strictly within the limits of its aims, and even of its
methods. Many individual members of the great body of scientific workers
see and know this; gradually the majority will see it.
