14. In the next experiment (same conditions) the theme, written down by me, which S. was mentally to suggest, was "acrobats swinging from trapeze." Neither P. nor T. saw anything at first. They were rehypnotised and reawakened. P. sees a man. T. sees nothing. P.: "He has got something round on his hand like a sailor with a life-buoy, and a rope hanging from his hand." T.: "I imagine that I see the same thing." P.: "I believe hés standing on a vessel - on the deck of a boat - now hés still there, but the vessel's gone - you can only see his feet and nothing beneath him." T.: "He looks to me like a half-photograph." T. then had to leave. We told P. to put himself into the man's attitude. The pose assumed was just that of a man who has lifted himself half over his trapeze, the rope which P. saw being across his body, just about where the trapezés seat (of rope or wood) would come. Such a picture would also correspond to T.'s "half [length] photograph".

15. Same conditions. I chose the subject, "a house on fire." This time both D. and I watched P. and S., who stood behind P. (of course not in contact), looking at the lamp, and imagining (as he afterwards told us) a great square of flame. P.: "I see something like a bright light; therés a ladder up at the window - a house on fire - no doubt about it".

16. Same conditions. Subject written down by D.:" Mr. Gladstone." P.: "I think I see something like a man - a man's head - comes and goes in a flash. I know, it's Gladstone, a photograph - head and shoulders." Here I had to leave, but Dr. Dill continued the experiments. I now quote his account. Mrs. G. A. Smith was now present, but was not informed of the scene.

17. [Same conditions.] "Jack the Ripper committing a murder." [Subject written down by D.] P.: "I can see something now - it's a man - rather faint. Very awful-looking man. Nothing like Gladstone. Repulsive and dirty-looking. Has something in his hand - it's a knife. Good gracious! what a terrible-looking man - in rags - with his hat coming over his eyes looks like a murderer." D.: " Is any one with him ? " P.: "No, hés alone." Presently: "Yes, he is talking to some one - another man. No, it's a woman." [A few more details are seen and P. recognises the murderer].

18. Same conditions. "St. George and the Dragon." P.: "Oh, I can see what that is - it's a picture of St. George and the Dragon. The usual picture. Not moving, simply a picture".

19. Here P., as D. tells me in a letter, became anxious to go off to catch a train, a preoccupation which generally interfered with success. On this and the next occasion S. was not shown the theme until after P. had been awakened. [He was hypnotised, as already stated, between each experiment.] Subject: "A pantomime - clown and policeman on stage." P.: "I see something like a lion, I think. Can't tell what it is till it comes closer. Quite gone. Saw something like a man in a white hat - gone - looks like one of the circus clowns - very smudgy, with a mist in front of it." Then about 15 minutes during which he saw nothing. Then "The clown again! but I lose sight of him when he moves".

20. Subject: "A photograph of Mr. Myers." [This time S. opened and read the paper designating the desired picture downstairs, and did not enter the room. P. saw the beach - boats - nothing].
