Turning from 'sendings, or 'telepathy' voluntarily brought to bear on one living person by another, we might examine 'death-bed wraiths, or the telepathic impact 'if that hypothesis of theirs be sound' produced by a dying on a living human being.
From that he would know there was some sort of movement, and this information would be speedily carried to the German High Command. So, without displaying any lights whatsoever, the men and motors moved ever forward along the muddy road. The rain ceased as suddenly as it had come. The night was warm, for September, and grey fog wraiths began rising from the ground.
There was an ominous wail in the sea, telling of the fierce tide yet to come; and all around her whirling wraiths of vapor sweeping across the level sands. From a little distance, she appeared like a woman standing amid gray clouds a sombre, solid, figure; whose attitude was one of grave thoughtfulness.
