{11b} This child had a more curious experience. Her nurse was very
ill, and of course did not sleep in the nursery. One morning the
little girl said, "Macpherson is better, I saw her come in last night
with a candle in her hand. She just stooped over me and then went to
Tom" (a younger brother) "and kissed him in his sleep." Macpherson
had died in the night, and her attendants, of course, protested
ignorance of her having left her deathbed.
{11c} Story received from Lady X. See another good case in
Proceedings of the Psychical Society, vol. xi., 1895, p.
