This extract from Harry Houdins recent book ga
Magician Among the Spirits 1t is book upon which
Houdini has concentrated thirty years Of his life
He approaches the subject Of spirituasm from new
viewpoint that Of master magician
Beginning with the Fox Sisters he discussed in detail the
work Of all the mediums from 84S to Sir Conan Doyle
day.
Although he has the utmost respect for the honest belief
Of the relentless Of deliberate fraud
Whether there be anything in sprituasm not will
leave the advocates of that faith to discuss
The gist Of the whole matter lies what Houdini ex-
planned to at a dinner when he sad
do not know Of single trick in spiritualism that
could not perform
Houdini sums the whole belief up as follows:
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle thinks have great mediumsc
and that of my feas done with the aid of
spirits Everything do is accomplished by material means
humanity possible no matter how battling it is to the lay
have desire to discred spiritualism; have no
warfare with SIR Arthur; have fight with the spirit
uasts but do believe that it my duty for the better
Of humanity place frankly before the people the
results Of my long investigation of sprtualsm. So far
have never on any occasion in all the have at
tended anything to make credit mediumstic per-
former with ernatura aid. Nor have ever seen any
thing that has convinced that it is possible commune
cate with those who have passed out Of this life.'
1t would that the magician is only to amuse us
and entertain by tricks but that he also does good
service to humanity by exposing those who attribute their
trickery to supernatural causes
