The morning came dark and stormy

unnatural morning We sat about list

she was less weakened by II than might
have been expected; but her mind wsv-

encouraging one another with our eyes.
The medium greeted us with a gush of
caressing politeness, glaneing covertly

bracing herself visiby beneath her un-
concern. II was she who made the first

Please sit down again. Now, we make no
charges against you. The Issue is not
whether you are sincere in your bellefs
nor whether we agree with them" He
moved one hand in a slow, broad gesture
'All that we leave aside The point is
