SPIRITUALISM
SIR CONAN DOYLE’S ADDRESS. .AUSTRALIAN & N.Z CaULE ASSOCIATION] (Received, this day at 12.25 p.m) SYDNEY, Nov. 16. - Sir Conan Doyle in his lecture, dealing with liis thirty-four yea.'; investigations of spiritualism, declared his j title to any little savings he had made, any literary reputation and anything on earth, save his honour and his family, were all as mud in the gutter, compared to the importance of this question. In support of the claims of spiritualism he quoted the names of leading scientific men, who supported it. He asked could they think these scientists were in conspiracy to delude the public. There was no question of mistake. Either that, or they were mad, unless in the other alternative the thing was true. Dealing with the opposition of churches he said instead of being met by vituperation from pulpits, spiritual- , fsts should have the right hand of ' Christianity given to them. He caused a deep impression by describing his own experiences, especially meeting with the spirit of his dead son.
