Description

Woman hears Neville's warning in advance of his missed lecture
Description
A woman wrote to Neville in a Christmas card that on Thursday morning, December 19, 1968, she heard his voice distinctly, calling out to all the regulars at his Monday and Friday meetings and telling them not to come the next evening, Friday the 20th, because he would not be there. The impression was so vivid that she went to the telephone to call and check. Neville offers the story as evidence that the Imagination can communicate directly, without need of a telephone, once a person learns to trust it.
