In the interest of truth only have I prepared this book, and have herein given a plain, unvarnished statement of facts as they occurred, in the exact words of the communications as I have them in the original manuscripts. In most of these, especially after the first year, I wrote down at the time the questions asked by Mr. Underwood and myself, directly over the replies, so that I know without doubt to what the answeis referred. In the first year, however, I sometimes omitted writing the questions asked orally, and in regard to such had to trust to memory, or infer from the answer what those questions were. I f, therefore, here and there occur trifling mistakes or repetitions they are due to this fact, and to the further J-act of my having earlier written out, so that they could more easily be read, many of the communications, in re-writing which for this volume I have consulted both the original manuscripts as written by spirit power, and my own copies. One thing, arising from my experience after the publication of the A rena article I wish to make clear in this Preface.
