Medium Finds Spirits of Man Who Never Existed

Reporter Talks With Him at Chesterfield 'Spirit . f Camp.’ Editor's Note—This is the second ol a series of articles by Virginia Swain, reporter for NEA Service and The lndiaiiEpolis Times on activities at Camp Chesterfield, Ind.. the spiritualist rendezvous of America. In her first article Miss Swain told how. In the first eance she attended, she was hit over the head with a trumpet when sho failed to answer what the medium said was the spirit of her dead brother. By Virginia Swain YEA iervlcc Writer HESTE IFIELD. Ind., Aug. 26. —Fi om the trumpet which u_was used to crack me over the head because ut my failure to greet • a spirit, came a husky whisper to the group in the darkened room. “This is John,” said the voice. Now it would seem that nearly anybody could be expected to have a relative named John, but for the life of me I couldn’t think of anyone by that name in my family. "Speak to him,” whispered W. E. Hart, the medium who was conducting the seance. '’You'll offend him.” Blunder Covered Up Remembering that blow on the head from the trumpet and not wishing to be branded a skeptic so early in the game, I decided this was not bad advice. “Why. hello, John,” I said, courteously. “I am so glad you came,” remarked the ghost. 'Why, er-so am I,” I replied. "How are you.” ’Oh, so happy, sister.” When a ghost calls a woman “sister,” and misses the mark, the medium always kindly explains that he uses the term to indicate close friendship and that covers a multitude of blunders. Now I have never had a brother, but I had been told to welcome any spirit that came. “What shall I tell mother for you, John?” I asked quaveringly. “Oh, tell dear mother not to grieve for me. I see her weeping there at home. Why does she grieve so deeply?” That gave me an idea. I must give this poor ghost something to talk about. Arthur Conan Doyle and Sir Oliver Lodge disapprove of cremation. “Mother is afraid it was wrong to have you cremated, John,” I said. “Why, sister dear, how foolish!" cried my avowed brother. “Tell mother It was instant release for my soul. It made me very happy.”

With that, John departed. He had not even had to mention his last name. And there would be plenty of time for him to learn it before I attended another seance. Next day I observed the gentle Mr. Clark assiduously copying names from the hotel register. I learned that this was one of his daily duties. I attended a circle the first night I was at camp, before my name had been copied. There followed' a succession of' messages, from Dr. Irvin Smith. Chief Great Thought, Little IneeA and a nondescript collection of relatives of those present. Spirit Discusses Weather A Spirit named Madeline called for a grandmother and her 12-year-old grandson, Harold, who were in the ctrcle. This was the gho3t of Harold's mother, come bax;k to assure him that she would make his father believe in spiritualism yet. After this effort, which was warmly applauded, there came a chug-chug-chugging and a long-drawn whistle. “Sure.” said the grandmother, smacking her gum, “That’s Fred. He was killed in a train wreck.” He discussed the weather, Julius Caesar in the capitol, crop conditions and American politics. He made pretensions to being a well-informed spirit, but he just would say “I have saw” and “I done it,” occasionally. Hart makes those mistakes, too. The next spirit anounced his approach by whistling "The Girl I Left Behind Me" and beating the feeble rat-a-tat-tat upon the table top with a pencil. War Hero Comes Back Ance again we were all on the edges of our chairs to recognize him first. But we were no match for the grandmother. “That’s Adelbert.” she said. “He was killed in the Argonne.” The circle slumped and sighed. When Adelbert had finished his speech, Ine<*n said the forces were getting weak and they must go. Mr. Hart had given several other sittings that day and his voice was getting husky. He begged to be excused from singing “Rock of Ages” with us to close the meeting. But Great Thought kept up his unmannerly peals of laughter and volleys of grunts all through the song. Miss Cartwright, an English medium, asked Hart to be careful in turning on the lights, for she was mediumistic enough to suffer when they flashed on suddenly. When the lights did go on, the circle was n study. “Horn Hogs” Miss Cartwright sat with her hands over her eyes, trying to "come out from control.” The gentle Clark stared mournfully into space. On the way home, Mrs. Rentfrow and I discussed it. None of her "band" had been able to get through to her. Her name had been called once, and she was sure it was the relative she was so anxious to chat with. But no message had followed, though something had clawed at her arm all evening. It was because the grandmother grabbed everything that came along. The spirits could not help themselves. Such people are called ‘‘horn hogs.” NEXT—Heaven gets me on the wire.
