An Experiment

(Note: Conditions everywhere this evening are bad, and particularly in the room, with very unpleasant high temperature and humidity)

Spirit (Alan): Good evening this is Alan.

Two things for tonight… firstly, there may not be any speaker other than myself because this is an experiment we are making. It may not work for two reasons, one is your weather conditions and the condition of you people under the circumstances - it is not fair to keep you waiting; and the other is that if nothing happens within ten minutes start softly talking amongst yourselves and the medium will be with you though it may take a little while.

And then, we would not ask you to sit for the extra half hour under the circumstances, but if you could make it between ten and fifteen minutes we would be very grateful.

Sitters: Yes certainly.

Sitter: And Alan before you go could I ask you please, how would it be if the mugginess is as bad as this next week, if I put a fan in this room and keep it going during our time in here? Would that interrupt things much?

Spirit: All I can suggest is that you try it. It will depend very much on the vibrations that it causes, the electrical waves, etc… there is a lot involved. But it may be well worth your while, because these humid conditions are not good for you people.

Sitter: Thank you Alan.

Spirit: I will say goodnight now for I think that is best.

Goodnight.

Footnote: Unfortunately, experiment probably unsuccessful, as nothing unusual was encountered.
