  • The History Spiritualism
    THE HISTORY of SPIRITUALISM by ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE, M.D., LL.D. former President d'Honneur de la Fédération Spirite Internationale, President of the London Spiritualist Alliance, and President of the British College of Psychic Science Volume One With Seven Plates PSYCHIC PRESS LTD First edition 1926 To SIR OLIVER LODGE, M.S. A great leader both in physical and in psychic science In token of respect This work is dedicated PREFACE This work has grown from small disconnected chapters into a narrative which covers in a way the whole history of the Spiritualistic movement. This genesis needs some little explanation. I had written certain studies with no particular ulterior object save to gain myself, and to pass on to others, a clear view of what seemed to me to be important episodes in the modern spiritual development of the human race. These included the chapters on Swedenborg, on Irving, on A. J. Davis, on the Hydesville incident, on the history of the Fox sisters, on the Eddys and on the life of D. D. Home. These were all done before it was suggested to my mind that I had already gone some distance in doing a fuller history of the Spiritualistic movement than had hitherto seen the light - a history which would have the advantage of being written from the inside and with intimate personal knowledge of those factors which are characteristic of this modern development. It is indeed curious that this movement, which many of us regard as the most important in the history of the world since the Christ episode, has never had a historian from those who were within it, and who had large personal experience of its development.

WARNER Jackson, Mississippi Second Printing October. 1930 Third Printing October. 1931 Fourth Printing March, 1932 Fifth Printing October. 1932 Sixth Printing July, 1933 Seventh Printing July, 1934 Tquj? This Book Is Dedicated to Man's Best Friend The Family Doctor PREFACE "Quacks" is not in any sense a defense of "Reg ular Medicine," "State Medicine," or the "Medical Trust," and no organization or society is in any way responsible for it. I am writing it on my own initiative, and will have it printed at my own expense. The profits, if there are profits, will be my own, The loss—if there is a loss—will likewise be my own. I shall not expect the book to become popular with Cults and Quacks, or that class of Public Offi cials who are on the Quack pay rolls. I am prepared to meet such opposition as I ex pect to come from those Newspapers and Maga zines which are deriving revenue from Quack ad vertisements. For the benefit of any and all persons who may — and will—threaten legal action, my name and ad dress are given herewith. CHAS. W. WARNER, Jackson, Mississippi. June 15, 1930 PREFACE TO THIRD PRINTING The first edition of every book is an experiment, in many instances a disappointment and a loss After the first edition of a book has been sold and a few hundred critics have paid their respects to it, the author of the book has a fair idea of its merits.

VOICE FROM JAMES VICTOR WILSON. 187 DEATH AND THE AFTER-LIFE ——— "Death is but a kind and welcome servant, who unlocks with noiseless hand life's flower-encircled door, to show us those we love." I find myself somewhat embarrassed in speaking on a subject which, though it is not a stranger to human hopes and aspirations, is nevertheless quite foreign to most people's habits of thinking, opposed to their educational bias, and which conflicts with popular methods of reasoning on the resurrection. I find three classes of persons who have read, and studied, and investigated the truths of this discourse. One class of minds are prepared for many spiritual things that I do not feel impressed to utter on this occasion.

Out of those, I would like to thank Professor John McCurdy for his patience, devotion, and indispensable help in the writing and reading of the various drafts which were sent. Even while writing a book, Professor McCurdy was always able to help graciously. Drs. Richard Nation and James Egge have also been of great help in this process, and I am indebted to them for their time and assistance during the writing process. Our conversations were not only very informative, but, above all, an enjoyable experience that led to my personal growth. Most importantly, however, I would like to thank my wife, Shannon, for putting up with me during this entire process. Countless nights have been spent locked away reading and writing, and Shannon has always been understanding. Above all, Shannon has supported this thesis and was my rock as I have spent almost a year and a half stressing over the completion of this work.

At a young age, he was able to transcend his normal conscious state and enter into a higher consciousness, which he called a “superior state.” In this state he was able to obtain higher information about the universe, life and death, and the future. One of his first gifts was the ability to diagnosis and prescribe treatments for individuals without receiving any information about them, similar to what Edgar 255 Cayce did about 50 years later.
