one more incident on clairvoyancy
Some time after the Ali Ben Hassan
episode, a number Of those who had
been present were invited to investi-
gate that wonderful gentleman again at
friends home In Brooklyn. one OF
the scholars had sufficiently awakened
by this time to declare that he thought
II was possible the manner in which
the questions had been asked had sug-
gested their answer. At this most of
the others arose in anger and laughed
scornfully at the man who could show
himself so skeptical in the face of such
conclusive evidence The guide" was
very much aroused and said he feared
this statement would cause Ali to re-
fuse to talk again. CThis manner OF
procedure is generally followed when
someone gets on the trailD Neverthe-
less, to prove that the charge was pre-
posterous, Ali would allow anyone to
ask the questions and he would answer
themi
Therefore, TO the amazement Of all,
this was done, and the results were
more bewildering than before There
