Description:
Burns,Oates & Washburn,London,1923. 8vo.pp.viii+ 251 + frontispiece. Original blue decorated cloth hardcover..A Very Good Copy. In all the cases which come before him, the wise and humane priest strives to do his best to comfort the living - and the dead. Fr Philip, Roger Pater - the pen name of Dom Roger Hudleston, a member of the Order of St Benedict - undoubtedly drew on himself, investing his character with the religious convictions and questions which formed a part of his own life and experiences. MYSTIC VOICES. The 'strange faculty' is what Fr Philip refers to as 'clair-audience': he can hear voices from the unconscious or subconscious, and occasionally from the dead - voices which can warn of events which have, or are about to happen.
