Book Description

Excerpt from The Reality of Psychic Phenomena Raps, Levitations, Etc The experiments described were carried out during portions of the years 1915 and 1916, many of them being recorded in the pages of Light at the time. I have endeavoured in this work to put them more or less in logical sequence so that the reader may understand the processes that led me to enunciate the cantilever theory. Much of the text is, however, now published for the first time. I am indebted to Mr Seamus Stoupe of the Art Department of the Technical Institute, Belfast, for the two photographs of apparatus; and I have to express my thanks to Messrs 7. T. Avery, Ltd., for the use of their weighing and measuring machines. I do not discuss in this book the question of the identity of the invisible operators. That is left for another occasion. But in order that there may be no misapprehension, I wish to state explicitly that I am personally satisfied they are the spirits of human beings who have passed into the Beyond.
