A DOG’S PSYCHIC SENSE

i Here is a story of a true psychic. " Born in Juno, 1925, this “wiro v ® haired” psychic terrier (“Vic”) was * electrocuted on the underground rail- ) way on August 9, 1926, writes “Pas,” 1 in ‘Light.’ f The lirst instance that “ Vic ” gave ; of possessing psychic gifts was last win--1 ter, when alone with me one Sunday 3 evening he began to growl and hark r at someone (invisible) in the armchair " by the fire, he lying there by my feet * on the sofa, while I read by bright electric light. At last, after invoking the high powers, I got up and satdown in the chair, displacing as I did so * strong psychic vibrations, while j “ Vic ” looked on in great astonishi menfc. I first used “ clairaudience,” 5 and hearing that my visitant was my 5 father, explained matters to him, and asked him, for the sake of peace in I the room, to go away. This he did, ! and at once the dog leapt from the 5 sofa and smelt round the spot where . the spirit form had stood. 5 A tew weeks later M. heard “Vic” } playing about the garden as with an- ! other animal, so fearing a cat had got 1 in, she went to the window and i “visualised” a very small black-and- ’ white terrier playing with ours. After , a few minutes, a noise in the next gar--3 den seemed to alarm the visitor, who - disappeared where he stood, and left 3 “Vic” to whine and scratch on the f spot. s An “astral” large white Persian 3 cat curled up on the drawing room t hearthrug was another cause of s “Vic’s” growls on several occasions • as he, called M.’s attention to his s enemy! On the other hand, he wel--1 corned with delight my sister’s occa- • sional visits, even jumping up to kiss the spirit’s hands. After “Vic” passed'away, we at times felt his presence, as well as hearing through the “ siderjo ring” that he was well and.only taken away from us as being “too human,” but never saw him until .September 2. On that s day M., while at midday dinner, be- ’ came conscious of a push against her right side, a way “Vic” had of calling 1 her attention, and on looking round, • found him by her, well, and joyfully ’ wagging his tail. She at onto petted something tangible, and told him how 1 we missed him, and that the new dog could never be the same to us, the lat- ; ter, meanwhile, retreating in terror across the room, until hidden behind [ a screen. He only rushed back to the table when'his predecessor'disappeared. 1 Since then Peter,; the new dog, has giyen proof of seeing “ Vic,” who on ", these occasions has not materialised. 1 ' thank God that we shall even meet 6 our animal friends when we, too, “ cross-the-harbor bar.” i
