Washington D.C.
I am here, Col. Cook.
Well, you are much in demand tonight, and the spirits who wrote
really whom they represented themselves to be; for I have been present
and know them.
I am Col. Cook, who was the head doorkeeper of the Executive Mansion
for so many years, and I know and tell you that tonight have been
present many of the spirits to whom Mrs. Wilson referred as statesmen
and rulers who have been trying so earnestly to influence and advise
her husband. Especially is Cleveland anxious to communicate to the
President, for he seems to be more interested in the country's affairs
than the others, and is such a virile and powerful spirit. I only
wish that there was some way that a message from him to the President
might be delivered; but we all realize that it would not be believed.
Well, I cannot do any good by writing more, and will close, though
I am much interested in my country, and also in this method of communicating.
I will say good night.
Col. Cook
