He had been interested in occult phe

soon as they were I could make
it do what I pleased, even jump clear
off the floor. So I took up my pencil
and “But why would you not
make the table move while my friends
were here?’ The hand which held the
pencil wrote, “They were too stupid.”
Shortly after this I was sitting by
my table one day idling, dreaming, not
making any effort to do anything in
particular, All of a sudden my hand
began to work on the paper before me
with a rapidity and precision which
astonizhed me. And it kept this up
