came from all parts OF America, and waited
for their turn. We got into larger line of

pens under the table and get signatures of
Shakespeare and Garrick and other valuable
autographs; we did produce spirit hands and

purpose and theirs. We exhibited phenomena
which were startling enough, In all conscience,

How do their senators and representatives
