TEXT

1. EC: Finally, he had drifted into the camp over which Catherine's father had supervision, and upon the father's visit once to the logging camp in Canada he, becoming attracted to the boy on account of his seeming lonliness, had brought him to his home to act in the capacity of handy man about the place.
2. This covered the experiences as he knew of himself and THIS EVENING seemed then to bring more than any other into his life the effects of this music.
3. During the recital, the others had gradually, one by one, begun to revive and listen to what was being said. Each began to take council with the other as to whether this might not be one in whom these forces might be developed, and all felt drawn to Abe in a manner they could not explain.
4. The elders, going to varicus students of occult science, questions then as to how this might be developed.
5. Catherine and Amos, Jr., felt it should be worked out among themselves, and they began to study the individual, rather than seeking deep into the cause and effects left, or good that might be obtained.
6. Mae resented having the interloper present in their meetings. She felt that this would interfere with their social status and position.
7. She attempts to influence Catherine, and then James, to side with her, feeling that Amos, Jr., has gone too far to be influenced.
8. In appealing to her father she finds that, with the influences with which he has been surrounded since the death of her mother, he feels the demonstration has given him an insight into the teachings of the spiritualistic thought he had harbored in his mind, and he relates to Mae and Catherine the occurrences of the times when he felt their Mother's presence about him when he was along, and allowed his thoughts, or himself, to lapse into memory of the days they has spent to-gether, telling of the instance when in the library. He had, with his reading, felt that he was slipping from the conscious to the unconscious, when she came and talked, as it were, with him regarding the problems the presented themselves in the household since her absence.
9. After this conversation with their father, for days Mae and Catherine were loath to approach the subject, for they felt a foreboding of something they could not understand, yet the presence of some mighty force was felt as the study with this group and Abe progressed.
10. Mae began, with her questioning mind and sureness of her musical ability, to attempt to catch the cadence and rhythm of the music played by Abe, but without success, which left her wondering.
