Mr. W.T. Stead, the well-known London editor and investigator of Psychic
Phenomena, discovered this method while he was experimenting along the
lines of Automatic Writing from disembodied souls. He found that he was
really coming in contact with the thought-waves emanating from the minds
of the living, instead of the dead. He persisted in his experiments
along these lines, and after a time was able to write out full letters
embodying the thoughts in the minds of persons of his acquaintance, and
others. Other investigators have reproduced his experiments with
marvelous results. There is a great field here, awaiting investigation,
and it may be that some of the students of this work are destined to add
to the scientific testimony on the subject. The above simple directions
are all that are necessary, in order to conduct this scientific
experiment.
