Bishop's Last Writing and Anodotes of His Life
A long feature revisits Bishop the illusionist and mind reader, detailing his famous Washington Irving moniker, the Toun Land facsimile, and the famous needle trick performed for Wallack's private committee. It discusses how the act fooled skeptics, the method of the card in the wrong book, and the role of key associates, including Frohman, in testing and presenting his feats. The piece also notes personal anecdotes about Bishop, his public receptions, and ends with social notes on a wedding and other local curiosities.
