Behind the apparent absurdity lie grand spiritual truths, and as channels for these manifestations, these despised facts are invaluable. Each one that is well attested—however absurd—is a palpable demonstration of the life that lies beyond the body; a demonstration longed and waited for by millions of our race, and which, if vouchsafed, would have been hailed with delight.

It is worth a journey to San Francisco to witness these manifestations My faith in God, in the Bible, in true Christianity, and in not only the immortality of the spirits, but the resurrection of the body has been strengthened by what I have seen at the Eddy’s. I can see only good to the whole human family to come from a right understanding and use of this wonderful and mysterious power. | For a ten dollar bill I will guarantee the expends and a week’s board to any skeptic who will go there and stay a week, and produce satisfactory evidence that Mrs. Huntoon's manifestations arc produced by fraud.
