... | From information received by us from many different quarters, it is clear that those Spiritualists who seek for peace and harmony in the movement would be glad of some reading-room and meeting-place open daily in London, but not connected with strife and aggression, and limited in its action to the purposes for which public libraries are ordinarily established. | ||
The existence of such a centre under a few competent managers, and devoted only to the objects stated above, would not merely be a most welcome gathering-point for those who desire peace, but would save very considerable expenditure annually to the movement. For instance, if Miss Burke were to be offered the post of secretary, thereby preventing the lamentable loss of her public services to Spiritualism, the total annual expenditure for all purposes would be but £170, including the use for one year, for a trivial sum, of an already established library. With but £80 or £90 in hand, a start might be made. | |||
If readers of these pages who are willing to support such an establishment by donations or by becoming members will write to us, their letters shall be handed over to some of those already known to feel the want of such a centre, and who are not connected with ''The Spiritualist ''newspaper. To promote harmony the suggested establishment should not be connected with any existing undertaking, and have no ends to promote but those which everybody admits to be good. | |||

The room of the ghosts was a large chamber, occupying the whole upper floor of a two-storey wing of the house. It was perhaps twenty feet wide by forty long—I speak from memory. Below were two rooms—a kitchen and a pantry. The kitchen chimney was in the gable-end, of course, and passed through the ''seance ''room to the roof. It projected into the room two feet, and at the right, between it and the side of the house, was a plastered closet with a door next to the chimney. A window, two feet square, had been cut in the outer wall of the closet to admit air. Running across this end of the large room was a narrow platform, raised about 18 inches from the floor, with a step to mount by at the extreme left, and a hand rail or baluster {{Style S-HPB SB.
