EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "Houghton / Hope: Rev. Barrett & Spirit: Mr. Hudson & Thurston, Stainton Moses & Spirit: Alfred Russel Wallace & MA: W. Arbuthnot, John Beattie, Mr. Glendinning, Geo. Sutherland, Dr. Thomson," is a rare glimpse into the world of spiritualism and mediumship during the late 19th century. Taken in 1882, the image captures a seance in progress, with several prominent spiritualists and mediums present. At the center of the circle, Rev. Joseph Bunce Barrett, a well-known spiritualist minister, leads the group in a séance. To his left, we see Mr. Hudson and Mr. Thurston, two mediums who were famous for their physical mediumship, which involved the manifestation of ectoplasm and other phenomena. To the right of Rev. Barrett, we find Stainton Moses, another prominent medium, who was known for his levitation and materialization seances. In the background, we see Alfred Russel Wallace, the co-discoverer of the theory of natural selection, who was also an avid spiritualist. He is accompanied by his wife, and W. Arbuthnot, John Beattie, Mr. Glendinning, and Dr. Thomson, who are believed to be other attendees of the seance. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of spiritualism and mediumship during a time when these practices were both controversial and widely popular. It is a reminder of the complex and intriguing history of spiritual beliefs and practices, and the role that photography played in documenting and disseminating these beliefs to a wider audience.
