Product Description
The road to En-dor [Jan 01, 1955] Jones, Elias Henry
The only good that I can see in the demonstration of the truth of spiritualism is to furnish an additional argument against suicide. Better Uve a crossing-sweeper than die and be made to talk twaddle by a medium hired at a guinea a sfeance. T. H. Huxley. PROFESSOR HUXLEY was never a prisoner of war in Turkey; otherwise he would have known that spiritualism, provided its truth be taken as demonstrated, has endless other uses even for honest men. Lieutenant Hill and I found several of these uses. Spirituahsm enabled us to kill much empty and weary time. It gave True Believers satisfactory messages, not only from the world beyond, but also from the various battlefronts which was much more interesting. It enabled us to obtain from the Turks comforts for ourselves and privileges for our brother officers. It extended our house room, secured a Hunt Club for our friends, and changed the mind of the Commandant from silent and uncompromising hostility to a post-prandial friendliness ablaze with the eloquence of the Spook. Our Spook in Yozgad instituted a correspondence with the Turkish War Office in Constantinople. (H ill and I flatter ourselves that no other Spirit has dictated letters and telegrams to and obtained replies from a Government Department in any country.) It even altered the moral outlook of the camp I nterpreter, a typical Ottoman Jew.
