l went to San Francisco a short time
ago, and at 2 p. m. visited the rooms Of
Mrs. Fairchild for the purpose of at
tending materializing seance. 1t was
the first time l had met the medium. A
gentleman with whom was acquainted
was seated in the room when l entered.
l whispered to him not to mention my
name, as desired to wait and see if the
spirit friends would not call my name,
as they had previously done at another
place. Immediately after had spoken
to my friend Mrs. Falrchild came in and
said to me: ''You are stranger to me,
but Oracle says her papa is trying to
fool you, but tell him he can't fool me'
(GracIe). Oracle is my little daugh-
ter who passed to spirit life about
eight years ago. After all had ar
rived we were invited to examine the
cabinet, which was a covered frame
work on rollers, and stood some four or
five feet from the wall. The only open
lngS from the front into the Seance
room were window and door, and
when either was opened flood of light
was admitted. Another room was con-
necied by folding doors. The sitters
were so arranged that it would be i'm
possible for any one to gain an entrance
without being seen; in fact, in order to
reach the seance room they would have
to force their way to pass the sitterS,
who were so close together as it was
possible to be. Soon after the seance
opened my little Oracle materialized
and approached me, calling her own
name, and addressing me as papa. L
stepped up and her kissed, and after
a few words had been exchanged she
said to me: Papa. l want to bring you
a flower, but | will have to go out in the
yard and get it; stay here and I'll come
back soop." l stood where [ was,
near the cabinet door. She dis
appeared, and in ten or fifteen seconds
returned with Gala lily, with stem
about twelve inches long. These flow
ers grew in the yard. but none were in
the room. I wish to say right here that
the medium does not go in the cabinet,
but is all the time walking about the
room in plain sight of every one. She
only went into the cabinet twice, and
then only for few minutes to assist
weak spirits to materialiZe. No form
appeared while she was in the cabinet.
Black Hawk, one of the cabinet con-
trolls, called my name from the cabinet;
his was the first time it was mentioned
hat afternoon. My spirit wife came
ut, gave her name (Christina), and
ave me one of the best tests | ever re-
ceived in my life. She told me of bus
mess transaction that L had no knOWl-
edge of whatever, and could not believe
it to be so. and told her positively it
was not the case. but upon my return
home | found out every word she had
told me was true.
] am very certain no one in San Fran
cisco could have known anything about
the transaction whatever; names and
facts were correctly given. Much more
that was interesting and convincing
TRANSFERRED at this seance which will
not take space to narrate. Some thirty
five or forty forms came out, but many
were recognized.
