An account

I have seen other forms than that I have mentioned. My grandfather appeared to me on the night in which he died ; but I was in the house at the time, and he had been sinking for many hours. [The only other case — the subjective vision of an unrecognised figure — took place when Mr. Wambey was reading late at night, at a time when he was seriously overtaxed by work.] From his widow's letter I ascertained that Mr. B. died the night in which he appeared to me. I was awake — I could hardly have been deluded on this point — when my friend appeared to me. I did not notice his dress, I was so engrossed with his face — his look. Mrs. Wambey endorses the statement that I told her next morning I had seen my friend, and that I was sure he was dead. I think it was in 1870. We learn from a son of Mr. B.'s that the date of his father's death was October 27th, 1870. Mrs. Wambey, writing on May 17, 1884, corroborates as follows : — My husband, the Rev. C. C. Wambey, the morning after he had seen Mr. B., mentioned the circumstance to me, and with much grief expressed his firm conviction that his friend was dead. ~M. B Wambey
