Psychical Miscellanea: Being Papers on Psychical Research, Telepathy, Hypnotism, Christian Science, etc.
there are many who in these stressful days have no time for even one volume on this kind of thing, and for them, or such of them as may read this, I have tried in the present article to give an idea of what psychical research is, on the spiritualistic side, omitting the medical side which concerns itself with suggestive therapeutics. The article was first written as a paper which was read before a society of clergy in Bradford, whose request for it was a significant and pleasing indication that ministers are aware of the importance of the subject. They are realising that psychical research is a powerful support to religious faith, and that its results provide comfort for the bereaved. We live in a scientific age, and the sorrowing heart asks for more than a text and an assurance that it is God's will and all for the best; it asks whether it is a fact that the departed one still lives and knows and loves, whether it is well with him, and whether there will be reunion "over there". Psychical research enables us to answer these questions in the affirmative. Science is now backing up religion, and is providing ministers with by far the best weapon against materialism and so called rationalism.

Mary is rich, Ruth smart, and they envy Caroline who is beautiful. They are unsavory young shamans with an obsession to cheat old age and death. Except for a single mistake, it is well within their capacity to do it. They are the Special Ones, grievously selfish people who can absorb the force of life from plants and impart that power into any living thing-even a replica of themselves in the form of a living wooden statue.Mary spends part of her fortune to import a sacred kapok tree from the Amazon. Ruth entices Barney, a sculptor, to carve the tree in the likeness of gorgeous Caroline. But things quickly go wrong. The creation of Caroline's statue ages the girls from within during the final days of its creation. The creation of three statues becomes impossible. The sculptor doesn't grow older, but does suffer from insomnia and strange erotic visions before he dies.The three women now look older than thirty. Their alliance collapses as they fight like wasps for possession of the statue, year after year unto middle-age, unaware that a part of Caroline's soul has already bled into it. The figure is determined to remain herself and not be occupied.Mary has a son, Jim, who has inherited her gifts. Secretive by nature and not understanding the statue's hunger for survival, she tells him nothing of the figure which Caroline is determined to steal from Ruth, using Jim as the agency of the theft.
