Mystic World

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In the year 1882 my father made a journey to Washing ton, D. C., on certain business. He had relatives there who claimed to know that the spirits of departed mortals returned to communicate with the dwellers of the earth. When he returned he had with him a Spiritualist publication. He was a materialist. The shock of this discovery at an early period of life produced a strong impression on my mind. Battle after battle in the mental world has been fought. Every View, from every point possible, has been taken to prove the materialistic theory incorrect. Therefore, my interest was at once aroused by the publication which he brought with him.
