O. J. L.—Well, spell the name.

I, for instance, lost touch after the word "magnetism," and, for all I know, it was nonsense that was being said; but the recorder put all the letters down as they came, each letter being called out by me according to the stoppages of the table, and the record reads thus:—

You all supply magnetism gathered in medium, and that goes into table; and we manipulate.
