To the Editor Of the Ledger:
DEAR SIR--I read your notice An
other Fraud Exposed with great lntee'
rest. / am glad to see in the Sunday 3
Aupeal that Hon. Robert Dale Owen has
Withdrawn his confidence from
what was supposed to De Katie King.
That there will be counterfeits when
there is the genuine, we have abundant
evidence in religion, SCIENCE and phttoso
MIN. as well as in money. No class OF
persons, | think, are more disposed to
detect impostnre than spiritualists. We
have more at stake than others. But,
Mr.. Editor, permit me to correct an
error int which you have fallen. lou
saw: SIN fact, nothing of the kind has
ever been seen in the light Of the sun,
as far as we are advised, outside OF Mem
phis. II has been reserved Tor our
goodly city To be the scene OF ascending
and descending angels in the day time. "
With all due respect for your being
advised" permit me to say that there
are thousands OF persons who have seen
such materializations in the day time.
| expect in the next number Of the
Spiritual Magazine TO give some very
remarkable manifestations in Missouri
under the strictest test conditions. As
you published an expose written By
Captain Gift. wiich was Endorsed by DE-.
Rice and Mr.. Rhea, Of Mrs. Miller,
now make you thefollowing proposition.
That those two gentlemen and yourself
come to ny h5use, 225 Union street
on -. at or before 7 o clock p m
Two other gentlemen and myself will go
with you and witness what is done in
Mrs. Miller's presence. and you publish
a report Of what you see aud hear. The
public will perhaps be better prepared
to Judge Of these things after such an
investigation as you gentleman are capa-
ole OF making.
am, sir, yours respectfully, for truth
and justice, SAML WATSON.
