In a sense I've only myself to thank, for I used to amuse myself in testing her amazing thought-reading powers when she was a little girl."

Didn't you hear the dog barking? Somebody called 'George!" "Perhaps," she ventured in the falsely innocent manner which both recognized as foolish and unworthy and in which both took a different delight, "perhaps it was thought-reading!" "With the dog?" he sneered. "You and the dog," she said, joining them deliberately. "It's getting so dark that I can hardly see your cross face.
It had not, properly speaking, been a séance at all, but the whole evening had been spent in terrifying conversation. A young lady had begun it by talking, apropos of nothing, about thought-reading.

Of the first two he says "I see danger in their practice and therefore I loathe, abhor and am ashamed of them."
