"Why not?" cried Ben Aboo, with a thrill of voice that was like a swagger. "What's to hinder me? I could do it at this moment, and no man need know."

My friends know that since May last I have been announcing war as due before September, basing my prediction on coincidences with events in my private life of which I do not speak." These, up to the present, are the only prophecies known to us that deserve any particular attention.

This long-lost brochure has this year been rediscovered, but it will add little interest to his life, as its main tenets had long been known. A writer in the Athenæum for May 9th describes it as quarto in form, and dedicated to Miss B , whom he identifies with Miss Bagnal to be shortly mentioned.
