BEYOND

TO LOVERS OF THE TRUTH, WHATEVER LAND MAY CLAIM THEM FOR ITS OWN, TO THE EARNEST MEN AND WOMEN OF MY TIME, THIS BOOK IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED.

PREFACE.
A word of explanation in reference to my title may be appropriately given here. By Beyond, I mean what is sometimes called the unseen world, but which might better be called the immaterial world, since that which distinguishes it from the world proper is not merely that it is invisible, but that it cannot be made visible to mortal eyes.
However, I have not assumed to treat of all that the word might be made to cover, but have confined myself mostly to that territory, with the entrance to it, which may be said to adjoin the earth, and which therefore is more immediately interesting and important to be acquainted with, and have addressed myself especially to those who seem to be constitutionally unable to perceive the reality of this other world, although willing and anxious to be convinced.
