H. W.—"Where is my big silk handkerchief?"
Mrs B.—"I gave it to Clara. You told me to."
H. W.—"Where is my thimble?"
Mrs B.—"I don't know."
H. W.—"I saw you put it into this bag." (The handkerchief was a large silk one given to sister by a lady who lived with us for years, and it came from England. I did not know I had put Hannah's thimble in the bag, but found on return to the hotel that it was there on the bed, with the rest of the things I had taken out of the bag before starting for the sitting.)
Mrs B.—"Can you tell me, sister, how many brothers you have in spirit life?"
H. W.—"One, two, three." (I asked her how many brothers, because William had only been dead since March 27 in the same year (1888). "Three" was correct.)
Mrs B.—"Can you tell me where that letter is now that you wrote?"
H. W.—"It is at home, in tin box."
Mrs B.—"Can't you tell me more about it?"
