Chronicles of Martin Hewitt Annotated
註釋It was while these things were occupying part of my attention that I chanced to ask Hewitt whether, in the course of his divers odd and out- of-the-way experiences, he had met with any such weird adventures as were detailed in such profusionin the books of " authenticated" spooks, doppel- gangers, poltergeists, clairvoyance, and so forth. " Well," Hewitt answered, with reflection, " I haven't been such a wallower in the uncanny as some of the worthy people who talk at large in those books of yours, and, as a matter of fact, my little adventures, curious as some of them may seem, have been on the whole of the most solid and matter-of-fact description. One or two things have happened that perhaps your ' psychical' people might be interested in, but they've mostly been found to be capable of a disappointingly simple explanation. One case of some genuine psychological interest, however, I have had; although there's nothing even in that which isn't a matter of well-known scientific possibility."
