of the percipient, quite
different from the single impression which we had
usually obtained when two agents were both looking
at the same thing. Once, for instance (to take a
nearly corresponding case under those conditions),
when the object was a rude drawing of the main
lines in a Union Jack, the figure was reproduced by
the percipient as a whole without misgiving;
except, indeed, that she expressed a doubt as to
whether its middle horizontal line were present or
not, and ultimately omitted it."

As I have said, the two successful telepathic experiments which I have
described, and which took place in the rooms of the Society for
Psychical Research, led to further experiments at a distance between
Miss Telbin and myself.

AT 7 P.M.

I drew the following diagram

Miss TELBIN'S drawings

AT 7:10 P.M.

I fixed my attention on a

AT 7:10 P.M.

Miss TELBIN obtained several
incorrect scrawls, but amongst
them one under which
she had written the
words

"First impression"

AT 7:20 P.M.

I looked at a pair of opera
glasses, at which I gazed first
lengthwise

then sideways

AT 7:20 P.M.

Miss TELBIN'S drawings
were--

A series of crescents [Illustration]

And this drawing [Illustration]

Also four drawings

It was arranged that we should sit on certain days in the week, and that
at a fixed hour I should act as agent and transmit to her my thoughts,
she being at the time in her residence in West Hampstead, and I in
Kensington. The distance between these localities as the crow flies is
four miles. The result of our first sitting, which took place on 20th
May 1902, is shown on the preceding page.

There was no possibility that the agent or the percipient could have
copied the drawings, as the letters embodying them that we wrote to each
other were posted on the evening of the same day and received by the
first post the following morning, having crossed in the post.

Telepathy was clearly indicated in this experiment.

We continued trying experiments for some months after, but d
