a scance.
THE two boys at once came through and told
their parents that they had been waiting,
as they knew there would be seance to try
to get in touch with them. They said that
their boat had been caught in a sudden squat
and had capsized and that they had been
drowned. Then Frank, the elder Une, through
the medium, took his father aside and said
that he did not want his mother to hear, but
he wanted to tell him that John, the younger
brother, had been eaten by great fish. The
Mortified father said "a shark, suppose?"
The son replied, mot the kind Of shark had
ever SEEN"
The father wrote all this down Immediately
after the seance and had it printed privately.
Three weeks later a great ocean-going shark,
quite different from those usually found about
Sydney Harbor, was caught at a place called
Geelong, down the coast. When the shark was
cut open the watch and other things belonging
to the boy were found in its body.
When my husband was telling this story at
one of his lectures In Australia, man in the
audience jumped up and said that he was q
fisherman who had helped to cut the shark
open, and that it was all quite true.
Now, Mr.. Critic, what about telepathy2
Whom was it between? The father and the
sharks brain?
I viii give q further example Of another
way in which those on the "other side" can
guide and assist US by their greater and far
seeing knowledge. Had attention only been
paid to the warnings and messages which
Capt Hinchciife sent through about the
R-lo1. all those precious lives might have
He said In his first message to his wife, on
July 10, 1928: II want to say something
about q new airship that is now being built.
You know some of the people that have to
do with it, but you won't like to breach the

Vessel won't stand the strain" -.
Again, in April, 1929, message came
through from him to his wife: A.. This
one is not sound" On October 4, 1880, the
following startling message was received from
him: "Storms rising. Nothing but q
miracle man can save them" Mrs. Hinchclife
passed on the messages to one Of the engi-
neers Of the R-l01. What was the result2
No attention was paid, and 1t crashed, exactly
as he had said it would.
Through another medium they were warned
that the R-101 would crash in flames and
that only four would be saved Think of
those - lives which might have been spared
had they only listened to the warnings from
the spirit world!
Another interesting case I win give you:
An American friend Of ours and his wife
and sister-in-law were travelling in France.
The wife is q very fine medium. When they

that there was going to be accident, but
that they would be taken care Of and not
hurt. Within an hour there was o terrible
smash. Nine people were killed in their coach,
and many others were injured more or less Sc
verely. Our three friends had not 50 much Is
q scratch and their suitcases were not even
damaged
Suppose they had tried to prevent the acci-
dent by pulling the communication cord in the
coach and announcing that unless the train
was stopped there was going to be an accident,
Imagine the headlines In the papers, Mad
Spiritualst Stops Train" etc. On the other
hand, communication with the other world
were universal, then the warning would have
been taken thankfully and all those lives would
have been saved.
