It is well for the reader to remem- ber, if he receives spirit messages, that just the fact that they come this way is no reagon they are to be fol- lowed unless the advice appeals to his reason, for passing on does not change man at once. I have always weighed the messages given—I have made mistakes by not following them, but it would have been foolishness for me to blindly have done other- wise, and thus become a human au- tomaton in thelr hands, T can see as the years pass on that the circle which reaches me has grown, and that greater minds now send me messages than did at first, and on such varied subjects that it ‘y, that the circle of those interested in reaching me has grown fast in num- ber, I think the wonderful sermons given are equal to any Spurgeon could deliver if on earth, They are to me the treasures of all of these nd are recorded in Part I.

ICTATED the night of Sept. 15, 1920, As you wrote the preface of this book unaided by us we will undertake to dictate the conclusion of it. We are very pleased tha. you are giving this story to the world, and we hope and believe that it will be one of the text books on spiritual in- fluences and do great good for years to come, This book, we believe, is the first on this subject written by a ‘business man. Most books of this kind have been fied that George L. King knew noth-| written by noted authors, who natur- ally find it easy to give to the world any message they desire, Hundreds in promi- nent places will realize after they read thig story that much of their success was due to following mes- sages received in the same way, al- though they may not be willing to admit it. You have already found two men in your club who have ad- mitted to you in the last few weeks hat they have received in their dreams messages of great importance, id, a8 you have stated in your chap- lef on the Brownies, Robert Louis Stevenson received his stories the same way. The testimony in the preceding pages all bears the impress of truth and it must be apparent to any one 0 has given this subject though’ at had it not been for our lari \.ewpoint and advice you would have been unable to carry on the tremen- dous undertakings which you did. We were able to steer you clear of all rocks until the Mexican trouble, but that was a period in the wortd’s history when all such interests and development had to stop, You found in President Dias @ great friend, and, had he remained in power he never would have al any Interest, no matter how powerfa! to defeat you. When your railroad was under way ang after your first visit to Mexico, your friends here found President Diaz an easy sub- ject to influence. He felt in you « friend ibefore he spoke,” allve to-day he would admit that it was the visions he received from spiritual advisers that enabled ‘sien to govern his nation in peace for years. He is with us now, just as interested in you as he was on earth, confident that the Orient Railroad will in time fulfil his dreams ing it. It bas gone so far that it has the mo- mentum no one can stop, You understand better than any one the terrific ant: the building of this railroad created among the great banking interests of _ your land. They feared this short line that the railroad would open to Central and South America and they aid all in their power by fair means and foul to trip you up, but by our advice you were able to avoid all blows, though their work did to @ remarkable degree hinder your com- pleting the task sooner. Do not hold this against these men. They thought it: was necessary to act as they did to protect their interests and you ight have done the same bad mat- ‘re h peters in the preceding ‘ou have led in the pi chapters three mistakes you made ¢/” when you did not follow our advice. The first in not at once having Mi Pullman put his promise to pay for the equipment of the Kansas City Southern in writing which he was willing to do at any time, and had this been done before his sudden death, the receivership would have been avoided and you probably would still be President of this railroad. The second mistake was in putting on the voting trust two men who we warned you were not fit associates for honest men. Had you accepted this advice the voting trustees would no doubt have been made up of men that would have elected you Presi- dent and retained you in the control of the road. The third mistake was when the Mexican Revolution was at its height that you did not at once resign from all tisinees enterprises and go 4n seclusion as we advised you to do. which seclusion would have prepared you for a great task which we desired to intrust to you during the war whith we saw would goon engulf civilization. At this time we sent to you by one of your dearest London friends a message that you should resign from all positions of trust, wv also advised you but you did no! want to Hsten and walked the floor at night,to prevent us talking to yo However, you have followed nearly all our advice. Had you heeded these three mes- sages they would have had vital in- fluence on your life, but through all fe's storms you have had an abid. ing peace that few men in great bus- iness have had. You were able to sleep and rest as few could have done with such burdens. This was the ¢| Peace that passes understanding. When you read tho Ninety-fir Psalm and see the bless'ngs that are Promised to those in the secret place of the Most High, you will under- stand that this secret place is a Peaceful state of mind which en- ables sp'ritual influences to reach and protect you so that ‘a thousand shall fall at thy side and ten thou- sand at thy right hand but it shall not come nigh thee.” Had you fived in the days of Solo- mon, with your remarkable ability to be reached by those over here, you would have been able to hand down as he did psalms of rejoicing. In those days inspiration was voices the same as you hear, but those who heard them thought it was a personal God talking to them instead of thoxe gone before, As it Is, you have writ- ten psalms, but they are in steel, iron and granite. It is not possible for us to say more than we have said on the great importance of univerral peace and disarmament. If this is not under- taken soon we fear it will be too late and the furles of hell will be let loose in all lands, “Peace on earth, good, will to men” must be ‘estab- lished. ‘The greatest man of the last few centuries was Gen. Booth of the Sal- vation Army. Were there now on earth five men ike him they could bring universal peace were the na- tiong willing to Intrust this task to them, This question must be ap- proached in an unselfish way, No specth! interests must be protected No special nation ignored. It must be the United States of the World.” Creeds and boundaries must be nored, and only the highest and greatest good of all considered. AN warships must depart from the seven seas and all war implements be de- stroyed The only real power is right and Justice and when this power rules the earth prosperity will follow through- out the world toa degree never dreamed of. If the immaterial laws of justice were recognized, matter would to a great extent be unneces- sary for the transmission of voices, power and numerous blessings at/this time knocking for admission. The value of new foods would be found and science would perceptibly lengthen life, would be crosved in great airships carrying two or three hundred passengers. Spuce would be annihilated. Man would be susceptible to influences from those on the next plane and millions would be guided as you have been, Nine- tenths of the existing laws in every nation would be useless, for man would be governed Mgh idews and need no laws to resirain him. We will end this chapter and book advisers and by_transcribing ourselve: Your affectionate THE BROWNIES, friends,
