Dear Sir.

I note your letter¹ in "Light" replying to mine² of last week. I read your book "Miracles & Modern Spiritualism",³ with great interest in Sep^r. 1890, but not since. I have no recollection of having noticed any reference to brain as battery. I got two copies, one to lend, & both are out. When I read the new Edn⁴ I was struck by the expression referring to the brain, wh: occurs twice. p.p. 44. & 107. I called the attention of [2] some friends, who knew my views, to the point as the first time I had seen it so stated. The Edⁿ. of "Light" has another letter from me which may be in next week’s issue. I will wait until that is in your hands & then, if you will allow me I will write you again. I suppose I attach a different meaning to some of the terms used by you. On looking over the new Edn I find I have marked the following: -

p. 56 line 4 from bottom, for "these" read where.

108 [line] 5 [from bottom] "more" [read] moral.

110 [line] 2 [from bottom] "trivality" [read] triviality.

121 [line] 13 [from bottom] philosohers" [read] philosophers.

124 [line] 6 [from] top "infinite" [read] finite.

Yours faithfully | F. Clarke.⁵ [signature]
