nevertheless some OF the visions OF

following:
During a certain summer one OF
NV sisters had gone with her husband
and her children to live in the little
Gown OF Nogent (Haute- -Marne;) my
father had accompanied them, and
my mother remained in Paris. All
the children were in good health and
no ielt any uneaSinesS in regard to
them. My mother dreamed that she
received a letter from my father, IN
which she read this sentence: / am
the bearer OF a sad piece OF news;
little Henri has just died in convul-
SONS. with hardly any previous Ill
ncss.' My mother, on awkenlng, SAID
10 herself: 1t nothing but dream;
it is all imagination and deception,
\ week afterwards a letter from my
father contained precisely this very
phrase. My poor sister had just lost
her youngest child in consequence OF
convulsions.
My oldest brother, Emile Zipellus,
an artist, died on September 10, 1865,
25 years OF age; he was drowned while
bathing in the Moselle. He lived in
Paris, but he was then visiting his
parents at 'Pompey, near Nancy My
mother had dreamed twice, at WIDE
intervals, that this son would be
drowned.
when the person charged to bear
the terrible news to his parents came
TO inform them. my mother, feeling
sure that he came to announce some
misfortune. first asked could it be any
thing about an absent daughter, from
whom she had had no news for sew
eral days. When he told her that It
was nothing about her daughter, she
said: Don't tell me, then. l know
what it is. My son is drowned We
had a letter from him that same day.
so that nothing could have led us to
foresee such a catastrophe.
MY brother himself had said to his
concierge a short time before: II

for me. I have presentiment that l

they had decided to leave the country
for the Capital. actuated, above all,
bv the desire 10 open to their children
the most secure and most promising
career. A fortnight before their de-
parture my mother dreamed that she
had arrived in Paris and she had
crossed to wide streets and reached
q canal. across which there was az
elevated bridge. Some little time at
,er her actual arrival in Paris she
went to pay visit 10 one OF her rela-
tives who lived in the Rue Fontalnc-
au-Roi. in the Farbourg du Temple,
and upon reaching the canal. she was
much surprised to recognize the
bridge. the quay, the whole appear

was impossible that she could have
any knowledge. either by means OF
pictures or in any other way.
This dream is very difficult to eN-
plain. 1t would seem to prove that
the mind is able to see at a distance,
and during the night, details which
conform by day to the image remain
ing in the brain. This, however, is
hard to believe"
