A Physical Medium, who was found by
accident when his master a former high-ranking Dutch government official, J.D.
van Herwerden, reported on seances with his Javanese servant, Aridjan. He found
out over the few sessions sitting with him the 14 year old boy had a gift of
Physical Mediumship, Direct Voice, levitation of objects, and producing
different phenomena in the Circle. One of these communicators said that he
was a Spanish monk, Paurellus, who had been murdered in The Hague three hundred
years before. At the Spirits request trumpets were being folded by the sitters
out of cardboard and placed at the table. In December 1858 J D van Herwerden
wrote to a friend: "Imagine my surprise to hear the spirit producing sound. I
have to admit that it made me shiver! .... And then, what sort of a sound! I can
hardly describe it. It can best be compared with what young birds, canaries,
produce. A soft, musical whistle. A tweeting so fine and melodious as no human
voice can imitate...". This should be noted as it is the more interesting as
other reports on the direct voice also signal a very faint beginning, like a
whistle. The voice became louder and louder. Finally it could dispense with the
trumpet and be heard in space by everyone present. Surprisingly the Spirit voice
from the trumpet spoke in French, a language the boy-medium was not conversant
with.
Other phenomena accompanied the direct voice. An accordion floated over their
heads whilst playing; direct writing; a flock of sparkling spirit lights moved
sometimes through the room, there were touches by an unseen hand, etc.
