was exactly what had occurred during his illness, and the date he
had visited her was the day of his death.

"I was at this time living in Belize, British Honduras. On my mentioning
this circumstance to some of my friends there, Mr. Cockburn, who was
Police Magistrate in Belize, said that his daughter, Miss Cockburn, had
a similar experience. He lived at that time in Grenada, and Miss
Cockburn was at school in England. One day she was out walking with the
other school girls; suddenly she saw her mother walking along the street
in front of her. Miss C. ran off to speak to her, but before she caught
her up, her mother turned down a side street. When the daughter reached
the corner the mother was nowhere to be seen. Miss Cockburn wrote to her
mother, telling her what she had seen, by the outgoing mail. Her letter
crossed one from her father, telling her that her mother had died that
day."

Clairvoyance is closely related to the phenomenon of the Double, for the
clairvoyant seems to have either the faculty of transporting herself to
distant places, or of bringing the places within range of her sight.
Here is a narrative sent me by Mr. Masey, Fellow of the Geological
Society, writing to me from 8, Gloucester Road, Kew, which illustrates
the connection between clairvoyance and the Double:--

"Mrs. Mary Masey, who resided on Redcliffe Hill, Bristol, at the
beginning of this century, was a member of the Society of Friends, and
was held in high esteem for piety.

"A memorable incident in her life was that one night she dreamt that a
Mr. John Henderson, a noted man of the same community, had gone to
Oxford, and that he had died there. In the course of the next day, Mr.
Henderson called to take leave of her, saying he was going to Oxford to
study a subject concerning which he could not obtain the information he
wanted in Bristol. Mrs. Masey said to him, 'John Henderson, thou wilt
die there.'

"Some time afterwards, Mrs. Masey woke her husband one night, saying,
'Remember, John Henderson died at Oxford at two o'clock this morning,
and it is now three.' Her husband, Philip Masey, made light of it; but
she told him that while asleep she had been transported to Oxford, where
she had never been before, and that she had entered a room there, in
which she saw Mr. John Henderson in bed, the landlady supporting his
head, and the landlord with several other persons standing around. While
gazing at him some one gave him medicine, and th
