What I have said refers to all portions of the country that I have visited, and to all classes of people that I have had the honor to meet, but it is due to you who are before me, the representatives of and believers in Spiritualism, dwelling temporarily in this benutiful Cassadaga, which I have heared called the "Mecca of Spiritualism in America," that I should say, that the welcome you have accorded me and the interest you have shown in my mission, and the attention you have given to my feeble words, intensify the impression that I have referred to and touch my heart in A wav t shall never forget. It is impossible for me to out in words the permanent effect these delightful soiritual and intellectual communings will have upon me after I return to my native landonly this--I know it will he good and only good and that continually. When I shall soeak to mv family and mv people of all this and then show them pictures of you until vour faces shall become familiar to them, the bonds of sympathy that shall unite us will strengthen and strengthen, and vibrate in mutual and in increasing fellowship.
