I distinctly remember my husband also being informed by his sister of the appearance to her.
It should be added that Mr. Tweedale sees in the fact that the vision appeared to three persons independently after the death had occurred, a proof that the personality survives death.
It need scarcely be said that the facts are susceptible of other explanations. The apparitions may, as already suggested, have been due to a telepathic impulse from the mind of the survivors. Or, in the case of Mr. Tweedale and his father, we may suppose that the impulse actually originated with the dying woman, but that it remained latent in the subconsciousness of the percipients for some two hours before a favourable opportunity occurred for its emergence into the upper consciousness. We have evidence in the case of dreams, crystal visions, and in various hypnotic cases, that an impression may thus lie latent for some hours before it attains full realisation.
