My Unknown Friend.

Wiio is the friend who watches me, Staunch and true, in tbe darkest night ■ I close my eyes, and a smile I see •On a heavenly face th a t appears to me, Bathed in a wond’rous light.

A voice comes, too, and th a t I hear,W ithin the portals of my brain,Telling the tim e for me is nearWhen the shadow form will appear more clear.And death be a heavenly gain.

<4Where in the world can be found more bliss ? Who in the world can such pleasures blend As the gentle breeze of a heaven-born kiss,And theprom ise of life th a t is more than this,

; And the love of my unknown friend ?■: —Ada Roscoe.

by Mr. Race’s own hand shortly before his transition.This “statem ent of fa ith” is so expressive, so dignified, so clear in its vision th a t we reproduce i t in fu ll :—

M.y Dear F riends,—-Although the words now being read to you were written some tim e ago, you may take them as coming direct from me, now, and faithfully expressing my thoughts and feelings a t the tim e of my passing from ■ the physical body, for, ,if such a change, had come to me th a t they were no longer suitable the m anuscript would have been destroyed.

When the tim e for taking leave of this life arrives i t generally happens th a t the enfeebled condition of the physical frame renders i t impossible for the departing one to make those sweet farewells th a t help to m itigate the sundering of earthly ties. Hence m y desire to address to you, a t this tim e and in th is manner, a few words of friend- 1 ship and farewell. If there be any here (or, for th a t matter* elswehere) who consider th a t I have, a t spme tim e or other, wronged them by word or deed, I ask them here and now to forgive me and to accept m y em phatic assurance th a t,'.whatever unpleasant effects I may have unfortunately • produced, a t no tim e have I desired to h u rt or offend theni, _Further, I wish to acknowledge whole-heartedly my great indebtedness to m y numerous friends for the never-failing kindness and good feeling With which they haye m ade-m y' life happy ; especially m y dear wife, whose.loyal co-opera-- tion, wise counsel, effective assistance, tireless energy, tender solicitude and ready self-sacrifice have been m y . support, m y shield, m y joy, m y solace, and have covered me with a load of indebtedness which-a life-time’s devotion .■ could no t repay ; and also my dear daughters, who crowned the lives of my wife and myself/ and. filled them w ith happiness from the days of their birth. P arting w ith these;, three treasures causes my only, regret a t ’leaving th is earth- “* plane ; b u t even tliis regret is softened b y the certainty th a t the separation is apparent ra ther th an real, and th a t itw ill be followed in due course by a happy re-union.

• I f there by any who, literally or metaphorically, afe . moved to shed’ a tea r a t m y departure, I. thank them fc*r :.:; P H th a t m anifestation of feeling and heartily reciprocate - ife 1 B ut—do not , I beg of you all—do not m ourn fo r M Stesp,I am not dead !

I t lifts 1<>»K been the custom among certain people to look for a declaiiifcjon of faith from one who is passing out

wf e

of physical conditions of life ; and although I have never been associated witlr-such people as a class, i t has often pecurred to me th a t it, might, relieve the anxieties of some friends anti would certainly gratify the curiosity of many others (who have long wondered w hat my spiritual condi­tion was, w hither 1 was drifting, and what religions beliefs, if any, 1 bad come to hold) if, in this valedictory address, I were to make, no t a “declaration of faith ,’’ bu t a sta te ­m ent of “ facts” regarding my spiritual standing. You will have noted already tha.t no priest, clergyman, m inister of the gospel or professional religionist of any kind has boon perm itted to preside over these obsequies. This is intended as a prot est against the domination of ecclesiasti- cism which, by imposing ceremonies to accompany B u rn t, M AHUIAOE and D eath , controls, if no t enslaves, its votaries during the whole of their lives on earth. A nd ,. further, it is a note of defiance towards th a t superstition which considers it necessary for the safety and future happiness of a departed friend th a t a so-called “Man of God” should superintend the last ceremonies, commend the soul to the care of its Maker, arid dispose of the remains in consecrated ground. \ tear not to enter and traverse the Valley of the Shadow of Death w ithout the professional services of a priest, for a strong trustw orthy guide takes m y hand, my eyes are opened, and lo ! the dark vale of common .anticipa-

,tion proves to be aglow w ith translucent ligh t and peopled iwitli dear friends who flock to welcome me. Think not this is mere rhetoric or the expression of a delusion. While ye t living on earth I have come to know— not “hope” or “believe.” b u t know—as perfectly as m an’s physical lim itations perm it, th a t when the sp irit leaves the earthly form we call “m an” i t continues to live, albeit in a differents ta te an d under different- conditions, an d I am convinced th a t th e physical life is b u t the prelude to s ta te s of m orein tense happiness an d keener apprecia tion of th e joys and wonders of life in every condition and sphere— all increasing and increasing “ ad in fin itum .”

•• I have, no quarrel w ith an y 're lig io n o r w ith religious people ; I have experienced too m uch happiness in th e foldof the Christian Church to u tte r a hard word against it,b u t I have been favoured w ith such abundance of in te rio r lig h t th a t I do n o t h es ita te to claim a position far beyond

Cease, then, nor order imperfection name.Our proper bliss depends qh what wo blame : Know thy own poiiit tills kind, this due degree Of blindness, weakness, H eav’n bestows on'thee.

One of his assistants testifies to his sterling characiij in the following words :— fj

“ W ith his vigour, force of character and originality was always fighting against official trammels and com-ffl tions. lie loathed red tape, and the official manner, an| was never* to he found in the beaten track, w liettajj m atters educational, political or religious. Indeed,-uia|| people who did no t really know him were shocked at lil heterodox, or a t least, unconventional methods of expi-cjfl himself on these subjects. R obert Race was a shuinfj loyml and sacrificing friend, a fair and generous opponçjtj and- one who, if lie fancied lie found wrong in any maif immediately asked himself if lie had committed any taS to provoke th a t wrong.

Seeing th a t the last annual conference of the SJj has decided to hold its first Summer School next.yq I thought i t would no t be amiss to pay a v isit to on® see how they were conducted, and gather up any ,po|j th a t m ight prove useful to our m ovem ent; so I boojj accommodation for myself and wife for the last fortnigj of the Vegetarian Society’s 26th .Annual Summer ScMl to tie held a t Inglemere School, Amside, Westmorcljs This being our-first experience, we had no idea as to SI tliey were conducted. I t is run on very simple liigj Rising bell, 7-30 a m .; hymns, 8-20 a.m.; breakfast-,)|jj a.m.; dinner, 1 p m.; tea, 5-30 p.m,; supper 8-30-Jni and everyone can please themselves w hat they do or jg|ij|

A headmaster, sports director,/- tourist guide an||j3 ringer are appointed- weekly from the scholars, arijM an addition to the-permanent working staff—cook, wait®etc. The headmaster arranges for lectures b y -..........the scholars, and these are given on Vegetarian arid-ij other subjects. Theosophy, Numerology, Christian Sci| and one on Spiritualism (by myself) were some ojiH topics dealt w ith, generally from 6 p.m. to supperlti®,and after supper from 9 p m . to 10-30 p.m. discusis$| classes were held. These times w ere-subject to

■ m ent th a t m ight have interfered. Every day, after-sufe for the younger or more frivolous folk, dancing, ssi§and games were organised.

Tennis', croquet, badminton and bowls were all j}[a| by, those'interested, an<J competitions were arranged! the sports director.,' The tourist guide would..i walks and outings for those who desired to visit pai'tii spots, and once a week there-was an official outing, aii(f® th a t day the school was closed to all students from braijkjailj till tea, and lunch was made up in parcels for every sc&l .with a-late high tea served upon the return of thosi had gone on the outing. Packed lunches were ra-hvii obtainable upon giving notice the previous night.,

- Every Thursday was a sports, day, when raceS/j of-war, laughable ' . competitions, etc., were orga followed in the evening by a fancy dress ball (which! gave fine scope for ingenuity), Interspersed with song2® recitations. \

The complete success of this school is undouf due to the untiring genial personality and clever won forth by Mr. Jam es Hough, the Secretary of the Vegcl Society. I t is certainly a post which requires a m

,-The second instance is the'falsity of orthodoxy regard1 -dijg-^vhat the Gospèl consists of, and this touches tljë Vital

ifst ''principle- of the Spiritualist faith. In print, from ^iAiipiti'parks and street comers, it is repeated “ ad nauseimi”

A few remarks to the critics. Mr. Bush says ‘ Quote authorities.” The answer of a famous judge, applies: “Never state reasons for judgment ; the ‘authorities’ only darken counsel and add to the confusion.”

To Mr. De B rath, if he does not know-the vi tal difference between “ dying”, and “ dead,” nothing b u t a dictionary will help him. Perhaps the words of the Now Testament,' “ 1 die daily,” may answer his seven queries, or give time for reflections further on the m atter. ,

Mr. J . W. .Potter is quite “ cross” and concerned about (lie m atter, and so far orthodox th a t to profess belief in the “.historical, Jesus” is said to be anti-Christian, though th e New Testam ent affirms the opposite ; and when he calls Jesus a “ bastard” he is evidently muddled over ancient and modern marriage laws and usages. .

“ Where,” asks the critic, “is 'the.evidence th a t Jesus i lived years a ttar his crucifixion?-” (W. Oarlos.)

The answer is the New Testament-, and reference to a Jewish Encyclopedic Dictionary in a public library.

1, ¡suggest th a t readers re-read a few times m y article, followed by a carotid study of the Bible and contem porary history, then they may loam something on this subject, and see th a t i t is not necessary, as Mr. Aubrey advises, te wait 500 more years for a solution of the problem.
