This issue of the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research consists mainly of an account by H. Rider Haggard attesting that a dream he had of a dog is evidence of a psychic connection. Haggard dreamed of a dog with whom he was familiar, and believed that the dog was communicating that it was dying. He later learned that the dog had indeed died. Supporting accounts from Haggard’s household confirm his report of a dream, and investigations from the surrounding area confirm the approximate time of the dog’s death. An additional letter at the end of the journal provides further details about a previously reported meeting with famed psychic and spiritualist D. D. Home.
