Excerpt from Dashed Against the Rock: A Romance of the Coming Age
In presenting to the public the following extraordinary romance, I wish it to be distinctly understood that I am not in any sense the author of the scientific dissertations and tables which form a considerable portion of the volume.
In "Onesimus Templeton" I gave to the world the outcome of some truly wonderful experiences which came under my notice, and arrested - I may say, literally compelled - my attention during the summer of 1885, when my time was divided between France and England. That wonderful phenomena did indeed occur, that the most remarkable cures were accomplished, through a subtle agency defying exterior analysis, I was then thoroughly convinced; but at that time I had not in my possession the mysterious - and yet I daresay altogether natural, even though spiritual - statements concerning exact science which I now introduce into these pages, not for any one's blind acceptance, but as a challenge to whoever may desire to investigate, or even seek to disprove.
