'ound the lid of the coffin partly raj, /.
ID, the body turned upon its side, the
grave clothes rent, and every evidence
hat the entombed had awakened from
that death-like sleep, but life was now
help came too late. The mes
senger was prompt-''souls chained to
clay were tardy and the grave had
won.
In the case Of Mr.. Danskin, who
was telegraphed for by his dying wife,
we quote:
Il became interested in the move
ment; was engaged with the Business
Committee, and anticipating a pleas
ant week among our friends, when
suddenly on Wednesday afternoon |
received strong suppression to return
home Immediately. After some efforts
at resistance | reluctantly complied,
feeling that had not yet accomplish
ed my work in Providence. When |
reached Baltimore, [ learned that |
was probably just in time to see the
last earthly moments of one who has
been the central thought of my life

We might mention the case of the
German mother of Brooklyn, O., who
disinterred with her own hands the
body Of her child which had been bur-
led alive. Of Prof. J. FL. Hertig, a
noted lecturer on Phrenology, who
was apprised Of his brothers illness
through this mysterious telegraphy;
but we will not multiply proof
G. Albert Loomis, in his Mature
and Power Of Influence" sustains me
when he writes: There are some who
are so sensitive as to be able to receive
intelligence from an immense distance,
and to affect others at distance; we
may have experienced the fact in a
minor degree" The author Of brain
Waves" strengthens my theory also.
| am not a believer in Spiritualism as
professed-do not believe that the
souls Of departed friends revisit or
communicate with those ON earth-but
| believe that there is spiritual inter
course on earth, although great dis
tance may intervene between those
who communicate to one another
The bond Of fellowship must also be
close. We find that this power exists
between husband and wife, parent and
child, brother and sister, and only
those who hold true fellowship with
one another. Heaven-ordained mar.
riages are union of soul and body
husband and wife are literally one
and consequently if one suffers, tht
other in some way partakes OF tha
suffering also.
