he Zancigs from a
friend of mine who had had private tests with them, but as it was
necessary to have the permission of the manager of the Alhambra before
an interview with the Zancigs could be arranged, I called at the offices
of that theatre, and saw Mr. Scott, the manager. I informed him that I
was a member of the Society for Psychical Research, which body I told
him took the deepest interest in telepathy. I handed him a letter that I
had written to Mr. Zancig, and on the 29th November 1906 I received the
following communication from the last-named gentleman:--

"DEAR SIR,--I received a letter from Miss H. A. Dallas,
telling me that you would like to meet us. Now, my dear sir,
we would be pleased to make your acquaintance, and have you
call for a visit, but if it is for any private show and to
be tried and judged if our work is, as we represent, 'two
minds with but a single thought,' I will have to say No. We
have done nothing since we arrived in London but have
callers to test and try us every day, from three to four
ladies and gentlemen. My wife and I agreed to all tests they
put to us, and all was quite satisfactory. Personally I do
not care, but it has been quite a strain on my wife. Should
you care to witness our show, you would be able to see us at
ten p.m. on the Alhambra stage, but if you care to call and
see us, and have a little talk, we both would be pleased to
meet you.--Trusting that I am understood, I remain, yours
sincerely,

(Signed) "JULIUS ZANCIG"

Although the contents of the above letter were of a discouraging nature,
I determined to strike the iron while it was hot; therefore, on the
evening of the same day I called, accompanied by my wife, at the flat
where the Zancigs resided. They were at the time partaking of their
evening meal. We apologized for our intrusion, but by the kind way that
they received us we were soon put at our ease. I informed Mr. Zancig
that I was much interested in telepathy, and that I had personally
carried out experiments in this branch of psychical research, and that I
was assured of the truth of its existence through the successes that I
had obtained.

Mr. and Mrs. Zancig impressed my wife and myself most favourably by
their unaffected and simple manner. After a conversation which lasted
about ten minutes, Mr. Zancig very kindly spontaneously offered
