That He has, aforetime, so used part of this spirit force in manifesting Himself in a similar manner to the sons of men, through His chosen spiritual instruments, history freely testifies.
That He similarly manifests Himself to the human race to-day, by and through the means of those who have developed their clairvoyant and clairaudient powers, is beyond dispute or doubt.
That He has manifested Himself to me during the last few months by His chosen spiritual messengers, through the medium of a spiritually guided man, is also beyond dispute.
This now brings me to the bare narration of certain experiences which have occurred to me during the last six or eight months.
In May or June last 1909. I had to meet in London, on business, my friend Mr. Sidney Beard, who introduced me to his younger brother, Mr. Percy Beard. I had met the elder brother on a few occasions previous to this, but had never met the younger one.
After a brief conversation Mr. Sidney Beard, having business to transact elsewhere, left me to converse with his brother Percy. We had been engaged in conversation for perhaps about ten minutes when my new friend, who seemed to be looking into and beyond me, suddenly exclaimed—” I see about you a number of spirit-forms who are desirous of attracting your attention.” He then proceeded to describe quite a number of them, some of whom seemed familiar, while others seemed to have no meaning for me.
I confessed to being astonished at so remarkable a turn to what I regarded as an ordinary conversation on topics connected with the business about which I had called, and ultimately asked the meaning of it. Mr. Beard replied—”
These, no doubt, are those who, when in the body, entered into your life at some period of your career, and are now anxious to remind you of their friendship and goodwill, or to express gratitude for help of some kind or other afforded to them by yourself during their lifetime. They desire to demonstrate to you that memory of your kindly actions really exists after the change called Death.”
