THE LOST CHAPEL
Since the last issue of this work, the foundations of the Chapel
of the Loretto at Glastonbury have been partly excavated, and are
found to accord, so far, with the statements received in automatic
writing. This discovery sets the seal upon the veridical nature of the
writings, and emphasizes the importance of the method employed by the
author for the recovery of latent knowledge.
