was the founder Of the colony and the
head and front Of the enterprise in every
way He conceived the idea OF forming
the colony about fifteen years ago. He
had practiced spiritualIsm for many years
and h said to have received many mes
sages from the spirit world.
He Was not satisfied with the ordinary
commonplace communications which he
had received from the dead, and finally
became convinced that II ne could purify
himself by fasting and prayer he could
get into communication with higher Or
der of spirits. He tried this, and after
some time he received orders To get
typewrittng machine. Every morning ne
found himself drawn TO the machine by
some unseen influence, and for an hour
ne would write without knowing what he
wrote.
He was told to put away the writing
each day and not 10 read IL until bis
work was compie:sf After a year Of
this he was instructed to real the taangs
that he had written ana ia have them
published. This was the origin OF the

been called at Lords on September TO consider
the following amendments:
