No. 16. From Miss Angus[1]
I had another successful scry on Tuesday evening, 21st December, 1897, when Mr. Mac asked me to look in the ball. He had never seen crystal gazing, so I told him to fix his mind on some scene, which I would endeavour to describe. Almost at once I saw a large room with a polished floor reflected, the lights being very bright and all round; but the room was empty, which I thought very uninteresting! Mr. Mac said how strange that was, as he had not, so far, been able to fix his mind on any particular face in the ballroom. However, he asked me to look again, and this time I saw a smaller room, very comfortably furnished, and at a small table under a bright light with a glass globe (no shade on the globe) sat a young girl, in a high-necked white blouse, apparently writing or reading. I could not see her face distinctly, but she was pale, with her hair drawn softly off her forehead (no fringe), and seemed to have rather small features.
Mr. Mac said my description quite tallied with the lady he was thinking of, a Miss , whom he had met for the first time at a ball a few nights before, but he had meant me to see her dressed as he met her in the ballroom.
We consulted our watches, and found that it was between 10.15 and 10.30 when we were scrying, and Mr. Mac said he would try to find out what Miss was doing at that hour. Fortunately I had not long to wait for his report, as he met her the next evening, and told her of my experiment. She was very much interested, I believe, and said it was all quite true! She had been wearing a white blouse, and, as far as she remembers, she was still reading at 10.30 under a bright incandescent light, with a glass globe on it.
