Recognized rs his daug hter.
"TherG Is some property from an uncle
onyour fathers side that you ought to have.
see two persons who are in the way Of
you getting It,"
"That Is true, and the description Is
correct"
"Thcr6 is little boy who died as
child, but would be about thirty years
old now"
~ recognize such child"
Next, Mr.. W. described number of
spirits around Indy, who recognized
them by the description. He also related
several incidents at different dates IN her
life, all of which were acknowledged as
true.
Passing by gentleman, Mr. w. said,
Eight years ago this summer, you were
in the midst Of great strife and con-
fusion"
This gentleman did not remember any
thing, but a few days alterward, he in.
formed us that he now knows what Mr..
Wilson referred to.
Going into the rear Of the hall, he
stepped up to DR.. j. &. T.nnGshOre. md
requested MIN to touch the point Of his
finger upon his hand. He said, "When
l touched that man, felt from spirit
the full effect Of paralysis-not from the
man, but from q spiTit-the effect was
stronger than think l ever felti before
from any one. l know tho spirit influence
Of fever, Of paralysis, Of apOplexy. l can
leel this in myself"
(Thc doctor was an entire stranger to
him, and had never seen Mr. Wilson. AS
this was Mr.. Wilson's first visit to our
city, he did not know him. No word was
spoken, but we prefer placing the replies
10 the heterogeneous that we have receiv-
cd from tho parties after each statement.
Dr.. Longshore says this was an admirable
test. His wife suffered from paralysis of
the right side twenty-one years, and died
in 1867.
Mr.. Wilson continued: Several incl
dents in the character Of this man as pre-.
scented to me are very singular. One
phase presents itself rs full Of angles, like
Il bundle of tish.hooks done up in pack
age of sand paper. On the other hand a
very mild and gentle influence threw a
thrill over me as took his hand. This
man has had q tremendous fight with
hinselE-over these angularitles there has
been n development and growth in those
feelings, bringing sunshine to tho interior
man."
"This is true"
II find this man under one OF those in.
tlucnces in which he has suffered ex-
trcmely. l find him growing in spirit, in
love, in kindliness, good interior develop
mcnt. He has not said much about this
to the people. l find him US young
man, padding his own canoe, standing
out individualized in IN independent pc.
sitiOn, respecting the rights Of others, by
caring not feather for position. There
was d dash ind dare element In him. On
the other hand find him to-day growing
in respect for ideas, principles, truths and
now and then IN q careful safe manner,
dropping into conservative ways. | find
him quito intuitional. Hc Is laboring
somewhat under difficulties from the effect
of an injury received on the LEFT side OF
the head, tolcrably well back long ago.
(Hc does not know of any injury.

church it was one with small share Of
stock in flith."
"Truc."
ale bows to truth in science, in philOs-
ophy, in argument. There is hardly u
man in this house more sensitive than he
is to it. He is generous in friendship,
strong in humanity, forCible in opposition,
aggressive when aroused. But even when
aroused to strong opposition, is keen to
perceive where sympathy is deserved,-I
then the angular element changes at once.
There is soft and pleasant control about
him. AS lawyer he would draw out the
truth from witness, and detect any at
tempt at ialschood. As q juror, the man.
ner of the witness would have as much
weight as the story told"
"Truc."
~ don't believe he ever would make q
good ministGr-he has been too ratliCal.
As doctor there must be no interference
with what he undertakes. The mother Of
this man had strong womanly traits-wNs
independent"
"That is So"
"At thirteen years oil age, he had charge
of seven i'll family"
mot So"
"At seventeen years this man assumes q
strong position, not physical, but mental"
"ITe then began TO teach school"
cat twenty, and in his twenty.tirst
year, l find this man taking upon his
shoulders responsibilities that very few
men take ut that time Of lie"
ale entered upon the study Of mcdt.
cine without any means, and had q hard
struggle"
AT thirty years, this man cntcrtains
the prospect Of change, n removal to a
distance, to mountainous range Of
country. If he had carried it out, it
would have resulted in great financial
success"
ale had very strong notion of going
West about that time, but did not.
