[The Book of Dreams and Ghosts by Andrew Lang]@TWC D-Link bookThe Book of Dreams and Ghosts CHAPTER XIV 43/66
Millar's Book of Glamis, Scottish History Society. {202} This account is abridged from Mr.Walter Leaf's translation of Aksakoff's Predvestniki Spiritizma, St.Petersburg, 1895.
Mr. Aksakoff publishes contemporary letters, certificates from witnesses, and Mr.Akutin's hostile report.
It is based on the possibility of imitating the raps, the difficulty of locating them, and the fact that the flying objects were never seen to start.
If Mrs.Shchapoff threw them, they might, perhaps, have occasionally been seen to start. S.P.R., vol.xii., p.298.
Precisely similar events occurred in Russian military quarters in 1853.
