Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Salem Witchcraft, the Planchette Mystery, and Modern Spiritualism, With Dr. Doddridge's Dream The Object in reprinting this most interesting re view is simply to show the progress made in moral, intellectual, and physical science. The reader will go back with us to a time - not very remote - when nothing was known of Phrenology and Psychology; When men'and women were persecuted, and even put to death, through the baldest ignorance and the most pitiable superstition. If we were to go back still farther, to the Holy Wars, we should find cities and nations drenched in human blood through relig ious bigotry and intolerance. Let us thank God that our lot. Is cast in a more fortunate age, when the light Of revelation, rightly interpreted by the aid Of science, points to the Source of all knowledge, all truth, all light.
