t--said that he should come to the Medium for advice. [No such letter was received on that date by Mr. Fullerton.] He also declared that Dr. Koenig had brought with him a Spirit named August. He declared Ponto, White-feather, Red Jacket and Thomas Paine to be present. (The Medium called "White-feather" _he_, Mr. Hazard objecting that White-feather was a woman.) The light was then turned out, and all hands laid upon the table. Mr. Furness laid one of his hands upon one of the Medium's and upon one of Mr. Hazard's. (The Medium afterwards asserted that Mr. Furness had held both his hands. But Mr. Furness was positive that he held only one.) Mr. Hazard was touched several times about the face. Mr. Furness was touched on the cheek and on his ear-trumpet and Mr. Fullerton was struck on the head by a paper thrown from the other side of the table, and touched once on the back of his left hand by what felt like human fingers. There were no more manifestations. The Committee adjourned to Dr. Leidy's house for conference. The above notes were read and approved. GEO. S. FULLERTON, _Secretary_. * * * * * April 8th, 1884. On Tuesday evening, April 8th, Dr. Leidy and Mr. Furness held another seance with the Medium formerly examined, Mrs. Patterson. The slates used belonged to the Medium, and were, as she told them, in daily, almost hourly use; the frame of one of them was far from sound, and the hole which admitted the screw was more than well worn. Within these slates, after being held for a long while by both hands of the Medium under the table, two or three barely legible words appeared. The screw was, by no means, as tight after the writing as before. This fact, together with the prolonged concealment, rendered it impossible to attach any real importance to the attempt to write, as far as could be made out, the name of Henry Seybert. Under the same conditions our colleague, Mr. Sellers, produced writing for us very satisfactorily. GEO. S. FULLERTON, _Secretary_. * * * * * April 17th, 1884. On Thursday evening, April 17th, 1884, a sitting was held by Mrs. Patterson with Dr. Koenig, Mr. Fullerton and Mr. Hazard. The Medium declared herself unwell. No results were obtained. The session was in Mrs. Patterson's room at No. 508 S. 16th Street. GEO. S. FULLERTON, _Secretary_. * * * * * May 31st,
