Excerpt from News From the Invisible World, or Interesting Anecdotes of the Dead: Containing a Particular Survey of the Most Remarkable and Well Authenticated Accounts of Apparitions, Ghosts, Spectres, Dreams and Visions

On Wednesday, May 25, 1768, and the three fol lowing days, I talked with her at large. But it was with great difficulty I prevailed on her to speak. The substance of what she said was as follows.

From my childhood, when any of our neighbours died, whether men, women, or children, I used to see them either just when they died or a little before, And I was not frightened at all, it was so common. Indeed many times I did not then know they were dead. I saw many of them by day, many by night. Those that came when it was dark, brought light with them. I observed all little children and many grown persons had a bright glorious light round them; but many had a gloomy dismal light, and a dusky cloud over them.
