A second experiment is thus described in a recent letter from Dr. A. R. Wallace, dated "Broadstone, Wimborne, August 1st, 1906":—

"I still have the slate (described above). Also another, on which, at the same seance I wrote a question unknown to anyone else, to see if the answer could be given. I wrote, "How many persons are there in the room?' There were seven, and I expected this word, or the figure 7, for the answer, if any. The answer, written underneath the question, under the same conditions as on the other slate, was 'Two Ladies, Five Gentlemen,—which was correct, and more than I asked for or expected, and therefore proving the action of another mind than my own."
