REVEALED IN DREAM
Truly Remarkable Story Told by
English Clergyman.
Compelled by Unseen Force to Secure
Copy of an Old Marriage Ger
titicate from Vicar of an
Obscure Church.

The following remarkable dream
story is given in the words in which it
is told by the dreamer, a clergyman of
high repute in England, of whose alb
solute truthfulness there can be not
the faintest possibility Of suspicion:
\ few months ago l fell asleep anc
dreamed. In my dream l saw spread
before me the open pages of book,
which a glance showed me was a
church register book, and in clear
writing l read the details of the mar
riage of Matthew Il to Ellen R.
1t seemed in my dream, as il the reg
lister were far away, although l could
read it SO distinctly.
1 felt a strong impulse TO go to the
railway station, without knowing my
destination, except that it was
country village l asked for a ticket,
and was told by the clerk that the train
in the direction l wished to go had left
some time ago, but that another train
was due in half an hour, and he prom
ised to call me.
l felt no surprise at receiving a
ticket without giving the name of the
place to which 1 wished to travel. To
my great annoyance, however, the
man neglected TO call me when the
train arrived, and again had 10 wait
for another. This time l was more
successful, and after journey of just
under an hour ! alighted at a pretty
little country staSion.
went to the vicarage and asked for
the vicar, but was informed that he
was not at home. l then begged the
old servant, who answered the door,
TO lend me the key of the church. At
first she hesitated, but when l per-
sisted, saying I was myself a clergy
man of the Anglican church, she ac-
ceded to my request.
1 easily unlocked the church door
andproceeded to the vestry. On a shelf
