Death and its Mystery: After Death – Camille Flammarion
This account of one dead protesting against an unjust accusation, was sent me from Curityba , Brazil, on May 27, 1921, in this letter :
DEAR MASTER:
Must not all thinking men aid you in your work, no matter in what latitude they live? I consider it a duty to tell you of the incident given below. It happened some months ago in Rio de Janeiro, and was much talked of. It concerns the death of a police officer who had, in his keeping, certain army accoutrements. After his death it was found that these had vanished. This led to a meeting of superior officers, to decide on the liability of his widow. While this meeting was at its height, and was not proving favourable to the deceased man, suddenly an extraordinarily violent blow was struck upon the table-so violent that the ink-stands rolled to the floor. It was discovered afterward that the dead man was in no way responsible for the disappearance of the accoutrements.
