The gentleman who was struck, Mr. Alfred R. Wallace, the eminent naturalist, said--'It was my own fault entirely, I broke the conditions--the orders were to join hands; and I was very curious to know what sort of hand was playing the guitar, and that was the cause of the blow.' We again sat, and saw no more of the wound, the spirits having used their endeavours to heal it."

On that aspect of the question I agree with you unhesitatingly throughout . . .

--In a letter to the Editor published in the 30 January 1886 issue of Light (London), William F. Barrett quotes a "recent" letter he has received from Wallace: "I am not at all dissatisfied with the progress of the Society [for Psychical Research]'s work. The energy of Messrs.
