Annerly again fell into silence. Anxious as I was to hear the rest of his astounding narrative, I did not like to press him with questions. The fact that our relations had hitherto been only of a formal character, and that this was the first occasion on which he had invited me to visit him at his rooms, prevented me from assuming too great an intimacy.
That Z should have followed Q out of X, I could readily understand, but that he should first have followed him in seemed to pass the bounds of comprehension. "Well," said Annerly, "Q and Miss M were to be married. Everything was arranged. The wedding was to take place on the last day of the year. He had just had, he said, a premonition of his own death.
Annerly, however, was averse from this course, being fearful that it might break off our relations with Q. It was some three months after our first inter-astral psycho-monetary experiment, that there came the culmination of my experiences so mysterious as to leave me still lost in perplexity. Annerly had come in to see me one afternoon. He looked nervous and depressed.
"Yes," said Annerly, "both at the same time. After the wedding Mr. and Mrs. "Mr. and Mrs. Q," I repeated in perplexity. "Yes," he answered, "Mr. and Mrs. Q for after the wedding Miss M. took the name of Q left England and went out to Australia, where they were to reside."
The event showed that my mind was a media, or if the word is better, a transparency, of the very first order for psychic work of this character. In the morning Annerly came rushing over to my lodgings, his face beaming with excitement. "Glorious, glorious," he almost shouted, "we have succeeded! The sovereigns are gone. We are in direct monetary communication with Q."
"Did anything unusual happen to mark that particular day?" "I anticipated that you would ask that question," said Annerly, "but as far as I can gather, absolutely nothing happened. Q returned from his work, and ate his dinner apparently much as usual, and presently went to bed complaining of a slight feeling of drowsiness, but nothing more.
Then it passed on, and quite suddenly disappeared around the corner of a stone wall, as if hidden by the bricks. What made the thing still more mysterious was that Miss M's mother, who is partially blind, had only partially seen the dog." Annerly paused a moment. Then he went on: "This singular occurrence was interpreted by Q, no doubt correctly, to indicate his own approaching death.
Presently I only received one letter every two months, and later two letters every six months, and then only one letter every twelve months. Then until last night I heard nothing whatever of Q for a year and a half." I was now on the tiptoe of expectancy. "Last night," said Annerly very quietly, "Q appeared in this room, or rather, a phantasm or psychic manifestation of him.
But perhaps I had better tell you something of my past relationship with Q, and you will understand exactly what the present situation is." Annerly seated himself in a chair on the other side of the fire from me, lighted a pipe and continued.
Annerly was fortunately able to contribute a larger sum, which, however, he was not to place beside mine until after I had withdrawn, in order that conjunction of our monetary personalities might not dematerialise the astral phenomenon. We made our preparations this time with exceptional care, Annerly quietly confident, I, it must be confessed, extremely nervous and fearful of failure.
