Dr Slades spirit writing trail
A message from the spirits: a sketch of a slate showing a message from Dr Slades deceased wife. Slade first practised his spirit communication in America before travelling to England where he gave seances from is lodgings in Russell Square, London. Word spread quickly of his talents and stirred the attention of two professionals, Mr Lankester and Dr Donkin. After two seances Professor Lankester seized the slate and discovered that the slate already had writing on it before it had left the table. Lankester used this as evidence that Slade was a fraud. Henry Slades trial took place at Bow Street court in October 1876. Date: 1876
