P.S.— It may so happen that for purposes of our own, mediums and their spooks will be left undisturbed and free not only to personate the "Brothers" but even to forge our handwriting. Bear this in mind and be prepared for it in London. Unless the message or communication or whatever it may be is preceded by the triple words: "Kin-t-an, Na-landa, Dha-ra-ni." Know it is not me, nor from me.
