that enterprise present and nothing known Of
this declaration by them until Il recalled by the events
which subsequently tssnspIred.

Of them the slightest apprehension o :ae nature Of that
result.
B. At engtb reques, came through the intru mentality
Of j. ~ Spear that cer,sn day she would visit the
High Rock. No in the iesh-Lerelf least Of
all-hdd any conception Of the object Of this visit When
there however Suitable preparations h1vng been
fully made by superior direction Though Their purpose
noOmprehensibel she began to experience the peculiar
and GgOnizing sensations Of pGrturitionferng some
what from the ordinary experience nasmuch the roes
internal aud Of the r1 rather than OF the physical
nature but nevertheless quite uncomfortable and not
lefs than those pertaining the latter. his extra

a 1be result of this phenomenon was that indications
OF life or pulsaon became apparent In the mechanism
frst TO her own keeny sensitive touch and after
the eyes OF all behoder These pulsatoas continued TO
increase, under process which she was mpeed to con-
tDue for weeks precisely analogous to that OF nus
ing for which preparation had previously been made in
her own organization while she in utter ignorance of
any such design until at times very marked and sur
prisiDg motion resulted
At every step in these singular transactions, Mrs.
- has been attended by angelic intelligences whose
presence is perceived by her interior senses who
have from time 10 time explained the rationale of
ceedngs and Of her experiences and unoded in various
deI arments Of science philosophy and morals principles
and truths Of the highest practical moment TO us and to
mankind These teachings have been TO great extent
based upon, and eucdaed by, the various experiences
connected with that mechanism and they have been not
only profound and comprehensive intellectually consd.
cred but of the highest pures and more eevating moral
and spiritual character. That these nelhgeDces have in
fused into her spirit most beautiful hGrmonizng cees
tia influence hes been perceived by all who have enjoyed
communication with her. and none OF these feel assured
will hesitate ndOrse the admission that "she gets

In order proper estimate Of the peculiar experiences
thus described large class Of correlave physiological
and psychological facts which be limited at
here need TO be considered by the candid investigator
but the foregoing statements are believed 10 embrace
what is sufficient for the present purpose namely, the
correction of erroneous statements which have gone
abroad.
With two or three remarks I conclude.
/. As these experiences were wholly unexpected, and
unimapned by the subject Of them until they actually
TRANSFERRED they could not have been psychoogcally
produced Her mind did mol act either in conjunction
with other minds independent OF them to bring about
these results. Theories must conform 10 facts.
These experiences were not nodded INTO the peculiar
form they took by any previous religious theological i'm
pressops Because first impressions of tins peculiar
character had existed and whatever notions had once
been entertained of the miraculous conception of Jesus
had long ago given place to philosophical conclu
sions Secondly idea Of such results had ever been
formed in The mind and hence there existed nothing which
could mold these results

il is difficult to believe that influx of SUPERIOR saving
"harmonzing truths will flow from delusive or deceptive
sources.
a. Neither Mrs. - myself profess to have "a

ever enthusiastic or extravagGnt may be the expeca-
tons of Others de know that yet at all compre

Tire will probably solve that matter, and we willingly
abide the decision. But the ncalculable benefits which
have already accrued TO in the uniOdngs OF the inc

ing TO higher and purer moral and spiritual attanments,
have Overwhelmingly compensated for all that It has cost
us whether reputaUn and this consideration
forces upon minds and hearts conviction of the proba
bity at least that still further benefit may be realized
from the same source. 80
Whatever may be the result therefore my position is
and the friends Of Mrs may be assured that her convc
lions of duty rest upon basis which neither the
opinions the ridicue of the uniformed affect,
while her spirit serenely sustained against the shafts OF
calumDy and destruction.
Yours for Truth and Progress.
