EXPERIMENT No. 2
Place — Peckham Rye, London 8.E.
Sensitive A male, aged about 46.
An almost equally hopeless task was set this Sensitive by the owner of the caravan and myself when we experimented with him at midday on a brilliant morning in July, with sunlight streaming into the room round the edges of the drawn down window-blinds, and round the top, sides, and bottom of the heavy window-curtains, which we had pinned together in a vain attempt to keep out the sunlight during the experiment.
And yet, once again, and in spite of the conditions which we regarded as utterly hopeless, the figure of a man appeared in less than ten minutes, materialised from head to foot, as he proved to us by showing us his lower limbs. He left the side of the Sensitive, walked out into the room and stood between us, talking to us in a deep rich voice for nearly three minutes. As he stood beside us we could hear the Sensitive, twelve feet away, moving uneasily on his chair and groaning slightly.
