reduced weight proves that his body is drawn upon, in its material part, to supply the duplicated form. Many of my own mesmeric experiments tend to _ confirm the opinion expressed in Isis Unveiled,'' that levitation of persons and things is caused by a change of their mesmeric influence overcoming the law of gravitation. On this point Madame Blavatsky speaks as if she had certain knowledge. It may be that it is merely the mesmeric life of the medium which is absorbed in this manifestation. Elsewhere “W. H. C.” informs us that whilst he had hold of the hand of the duplicate, Mr. Blackburn felt the substantial head of the medium presumably as in her usual state, which tends to confirm this view.
Still you may have better proof of your own particular view of this question, and if so, your readers would be much indebted to you for it.
