"I'm not frightened of Hodgson if you wouldn't bother, Jim." "Can't do without you, old cock. You're just the fellow to lift my Latin and those filthy mathematics high enough out of the mud to keep the beaks from worrying me to death.
The Society for Psychical Research and many eminent psychologists, among them the late William James, Dr. Weir Mitchell, Dr. Hodgson of Boston, and Dr. A. E. Osborn of San Francisco, have reported many cases of alternating personality.
"Nevertheless, give us your name." "Oh, you may ask Mr Hodgson, the senior clerk, or that full-moon-faced fellow they know my name." "Waterman, what do you mean?" replied Mr Hodgson, shivering with cold. "Very impudent fellow," said the junior of the round face. "If they know your name, they won't tell it," replied the other.
Though we meet with no game, tracks of kangaroos are very numerous, and they frequently indicate animals of great size. Emus have been seen twice. South-westerly winds. Oct. 19. During the night, north-easterly breeze; at the break of day, a perfect calm; after sunset easterly winds again. Mr. Hodgson and Charley, whom I had sent to seek John and Caleb, returned to the camp with a kangaroo.
Mr Hodgson shot a kangaroo; Mr Roper brought in eight cockatoos; Mr Phillips found a flesh-coloured drupaceous fruit; Mr Calvert shot a native companion not one of the aborigines, but a bird so called; and thus the book goes on, every thing put down with the dry brevity of a seaman's log.
We made arrangements at once for my joining Dr Hodgson next morning at Arlington Heights, where my first sitting with Mrs Piper took place, and where I met for the first time this refined and interesting-looking woman. I was told that with the advent of the Imperator and Stainton Moses' controls, the character of Mrs Piper's mediumship had undergone a complete change.
As a matter of fact, that's the fault with it," added Hodgson, "it's too original." "You said you wanted it original," I reminded him. He laughed. "Yes, but original for the stage, I meant the old dolls in new frocks." I thanked him for all his kindness, and went home and packed my knapsack.
So saying, Mary Hodgson caught up her husband's Sunday cane, and despite pussy's cries and scratches, she gave him such a beating as she hoped might cure him of his thievish propensities; when lo! and behold, Mrs. Jenkins stood at the door with a face of bitter wrath.
"I should have liked to have had something above common, Mary," said Hodgson, as they too made their plans for the next day, "but I think roast beef must do for us. You see, love, we've a family." "Only one, Jem! I don't want more than roast beef, though, I'm sure. Before I went to service, mother and me would have thought roast beef a very fine dinner."
The low comedian, the last to go, told Hodgson he thought he might be able to do something with parts of it, if given a free hand. Hodgson and I left alone, looked at each other. "It's no good," said Hodgson, "from a box-office point of view. Very clever." "How do you know it is no good from a box-office point of view?" I ventured to enquire. "I never made a mistake in my life," replied Hodgson.
