parts of the Globe, were directed to departed acquaintances of the writers, and answers were asked from the departed which he could not give also in the case, if he would read the letters.  But answers were to be given without opening the letters, by him as writing medium of spirits.  He had to return the letters without opening the seal, and to add the answers as written by his mediumship.  While reading the reports regarding that medium, I thought to see him, when I would come again to Boston.  But while I was in the first part of November, 1858, in Boston I did not remember this, and came at my return from New Hampshire in the briefly related manner on the third December, 1858, against all my expectation to him.  I think that he was present at the two above mentioned Conferences in Boston, in which I spoke before starting for New Hampshire.  When I conversed on the 3d of December with him in his office, he invited me to come on Saturday, December 4th 1858, to his office and from thence to ride with him to his house in Chelsea City and spend Sunday, December 5th, with him.  I was impressed to do so.  That Sunday was the second Sunday in Advent.  On the 4th, after the arrival in his house we both were tired and went to bed at 10 o’clock P.M.  I rested well, till I was awakened by a female departed spirit who was in great distress and entreated me to give her assistance to kill her husband.  I understood it in a spiritual sense to stop the pernicious course of her husband, and promised her my assistance.  As soon as I promised her my assistance my leaders took her in protection and they expelled at the same time the whole company of her task masters out of the room, and then from two places on the outside of the house, from which they were compelled to remove.  After that spectacle, the detail of which here is not the place to explain, the clock struck four.  From this circumstance I understood, that the scene commenced at three o’clock.

There are certain hours, according to our spirit language by numbers most convenient for certain communications.  As the communication requires, also the hour is selelected by my leaders in which they draw me into the inner state in which they show me, what is congruous to my mission.  They put me, in that instance, from my sleep into the inner state of knowledge of what was going on.  In this state I not see the female, although I was conscious, that she was surrounded by enemies of her happiness.  The whole scene and explanation belonging to the treatise which will be published in an other time, these hints may suffice, to understand the following items.  As soon as I saw after that scene Mr. Mansfield and his wife at breakfast, I told them that I had a great spirit manifestation, which Mr. Mansfield could not understand, except if he would study some of my writings to know somewhat about my mission He read and I explained the substance of some points in my writings to make him known somewhat about my mission.  Afternoon,
