________________ 858 JAINA GAZETTE. [Aug. & Sept. Mr. Myers gives a far more rational axplapation, viz., “ That the deceased brother, aided by some other dimly discerned spirit, was endeavouring to present to Mrs. Storie a series of pictures representing his death-as realised after his death." These two eases by themselves and they are typical of scores of others—are sufficient to disprove the deferred telepathic influence theory. By no amount of ingenuity can they be brought within its limits without an affront to the intellect. The belief that man survives after bodily death alone will explain them. But all evidence of this kind is dwarfed into negligibility beside that One Great Proof of human immortality given 1917 years ago, when one tried amid unparalleled publicity and excitement, with all the painstaking care of the Roman judicature, sentenced and executed in the presence of many hundreds of thousands of witnesses gathered together from every quarter of the then known world, buried and sealed down with typical Jewish caution, was seen subsequently, not once or twice, bat many times and in many places by individuals and groups of persons over five hundred in all of every walk in life, level-beaded, common-sense, everyday people, to all of wbom His reappearance was the last thing expeoted, and every one of whom was ready to testify to the accuracy of bis witness with his life. Their testimony was gross-examined by fire and the swerd, by scourges and liops' jaws, and remained unshaken; and at the end of nearly two thousand years of relentless, bitter, prejudicad criticism it remains unsbakep gtill.
