Fragments of a Memory and a Seance Investigation
A highly fragmentary reminiscence mixes a mournful narrative with later notes on a Missouri Institute for the Blind visit and a critical account of a Spiritualist seance in New York. The piece blends personal loss, travel, and observations on blind education with a confrontation over alleged mediumship fraud and a dramatic seance disruption.

Echoes of the Talking Machine and a New Invention
A historic reflection on the phonograph outlining its mechanical nature and vast potential. The article envisions voices recorded on a movable paper strip, reproduced later in perfect tones, enabling distant or future playback and even musical works performed by famous vocalists. It ponders writing’s possible end and the future of books, while noting the device’s silent, mechanical operation.
