An account

I have never heard of Mrs. L. having had any hallucinations. The fancies I alluded to were simply a few phenomena accounted for on the ground of ' telepathic ' rapport between herself and Mr. L., such as having a distinct impression that he was coming home unexpectedly (whilst absent in the North of England), and finding on several occasions that the impressions were quite correct. 2 See p. 102, note. 108 THE TRANSITION FROM EXPERIMENTAL [chap. Miss Verity corroborates as follows : — I can remember quite well Mrs. L.'s mentioning her two visions — one at 9.30 and one at 12 — at the time, and before S. H. B. came. When he came, my sister told him, and immediately he took a card (or paper, I forget which) out of his pocket, containing an account of the previous evening. I consider this testimony quite as good as if Mrs. L. were giving it, because I can recall so well these two days. My sister has told me that she never experienced any hallucination of the senses except on this occasion. a j^ g Verity. The present writer requested Mr. B. to send him a note on the night that he intended to make his next experiment of the kind, and received the following note by the first post on Monday, March 24th, 1884. March 22nd, 1884. (16) Dear Mr. Gurney, — I am going to try the experiment to-night of making my presence perceptible at 44, Norland Square, at 12 p.m. I will let you know the result in a few days. — Yours very sincerely,
