$lO For Your Strangest
Dream
! (By Fitzhugh Lee,
Journal.)
I lay no claims to being anything
but an ordinary mortal. I was not
sick, tired, overfed or mentally wor
ried when I dreamed this deam.
About twenty years ago 1 was at
a hotel in Union, S. C., and went to
my room for a short nap at about
3 o’clock in the afternoon. I lay
on the bed, began to doze and soon
was fully asleep, and I believe I
slept for about thirty minutes.
• While asleep I dreamed 1 was on
| the outskirts of Covington, Ga. The
room was in was rather dark, but
not too dark to prevent most objects
in the room from being plainly seen.
The twilight in the room was cauu-d
by the weather outside, it seemed,
for it was raining very hard, and the
sky was overcast.
I seemed to recognize the house,
the grounds, the trees, fences and
veranda, for I had passed the house
several times, but I had never ben
in the house, and even to this day
have never visited the place, except
in my dream.
As I stood by the mantelpiece,
with my right arm resting on the
mantel and my left side facing the
main part of the room, I saw a bed
! in the corner, between a window fac
ing a door in the house and the only
■ door in the room. I saw a young wo
man lying in the bed, but only the
aim outlines because of the darkness,
An elderly woman was seated be
-1 side the bed on the side nearest the
* door, watching over the young wo
! man, but at the same time looking
at me.
My eyes having became accustom
ed to the surroundings, I addressed
my remarks to the elderly woman,
and said: “What is the matter with
my sister? What has happened?”
The lady replied: “This girl and
your other sister und your little
brother were caught in a heavy rain
and thunderstorm. Lightning began
to hit the trees and the telephone
poles and wires. The horse gat
badly frightened and came near run
ning away. Your sister herp w'as
driving. She became highly excited
and went into hysterics. Some men
[ran out from this house, caught the
horse and brought them into the
i yard. They took the ladies and the
| little boy into the house. Your sister
is not hurt and will soon get o\jpr
the fright.’-’
At this time I wish to note that I
was about 300 miles away from the
scene of the accident, but in spirit
I was with my sister in Covington,
Ga., while my body was in Union,
S. C.
When I awoke i lay still a few
mint.' :s thinking over the dream.
Then I arose and bathed my face
and went into the hotel lobby.
Naturally such a dream would
make a lasting impression; still I
considered it like many other dreams
that I had had in my life, of no par
ticular importance.
Two days passed. I was in Co
lumbia, S. C., when I received a
letter from my mother. In her let
ter she gave the details of this hap
pening, corroborating all that I had
seen in my dream—the same house,
time, circumstances.
This sister whom my mind or soul
or spirit, whichever it was left my
body to visit in trouble, looks very
much like me, and wo are alike in
temperament. Wc love each other
very much. It may be that in tier
fright and trouble she sent out h call
to me. I was asleep, in a receptive
condition, and, as they say of tin
radio, “tuned in.” My spirit caught
the call and ’ traveled 300 miles
through space to Covington, Ga.,
entered this house I had never beer
in ar.d walked to the bedside of my
3ister.
In my dream I did not speak to
her. All my conversation was with
rn unknown person. Then I was
winged hack to Union, S. C., and
awoke.
Another Stranj; Dream
Another very strange thing hap
pened to me a: one t me.
I had come home tired out. I ate
my supper and remained downstairs
with a party of home folks until
about 9 o’clock, and then excused
m -;.f.if j>rd went to bed, on the sec
ond floor.
Lrucr on the party downstairs
b.- 1: up. Someone entered my
room softly aft< f turning the knob
so as r.ot to waken me.
The room was dark and I wan
fully s.'.vaka by thi: Frr:e. I said to
the. r.e '-comer, “It i:, not as late as
1 thought i*. vya3.”
“I!;w do you know what time it
is? You were *leen. V/hat tiro.; dr
you think it is. 'f you know o
much about the time?” I was a-ked.
“It is 11:05,” I said.
“How ’o you know that*”
“Well,” I raid, “the only way I

can account far my knowledge is
that before you left the room down
stairs you looked at the clock. The
picture of the clock was impressed
on your mind. That impression re
mained there a-: you came up the
.steps. I was clear in your mind
.when you softly entered this door
in the dark. When you were in
side the room I saw the same lighted
clock face over your head on the
wall. The hand.- 1 , of the clock regis
tered 11:05 p. m.
Mental Telepathy
Here is another similar instance.
I was required to go to a town
some sixty miles from Atlanta quite
suddenly. The trip was taken after
only a few minutes’ decision.
When the train was moving out
of the old Atlanta car shed, 1 focus
ed my mind on a certain person who
lived in the town where I was go
ing. The man was a lifelong friend
and since I was only to be in the
town a short time I hoped to meet
the train.
When I arrived there my friend
was waiting at the station. It seems
my mental message had not gone
amiss.
After we had each other
I said, “Well, how vomes it that
you are down here?”
“That I do not know,” my friend
replied. “I i.s exceedingly unusual
for me to meet this train. In fact,
it is about the first time I have ever
come to meet it, unless I was going
to take a trip. About two hours ago
something came to my mind which
made me think I ought to meet it.
1 do not know why, but I laid aside
all other things and came down here.
I suppose it was to meet you. Ido
not know of any other reason.”
All of the above material ii true,
but I do not pretend to explain it in
any way.
Other Queer Coincidence*
These experiences told by M. Lee
recall an article published more
than a year ago in The Journal’s
Sunday Magazine about unusual
1 dreams of Atlanta people.
One instance told of how Mrs.
Fran:< M. Inman balanced her
check book in a dream. She had
trier!' for several days to moke it
balance while awake. Then she
dreamed about i. and saw just whore

Vivid dream.: were recounted by
W. R. C. Smith, president of the W.
R. C. Smith Publishing company. He
told of one he had when he was liv

been a hold-up in the neighborhood,
he was keeping with a revolver

tana ranch, where he had watched
cowboys twirl a pistol in
hands and bring it down, firing &.H
quick as a flash. He had always
longed to do this feat but had never
been able to succeed. In his dream
he tried several times and at last
exclaimed, “I have it,” meaning he
had succeeded in accomplishing the
trick.
Mrs. Smith cried out from the
next room to know v/hat he was
shooting at, and it turned out that
he had put a bullet into the mattress
from the real revolver taken from
under hin pillow.
Ho told of another dream he had
of a train wreck in which he jump

curred after a slight operation on
