Another K.H. letter materialized from a ball of whitish mist

C.W. Leadbeater also writes about another
letter from Master KH being materialized:

=======================================================

In those days trains were usually lit by smoky oil lamps, 
and in the center of the roof of each compartment there 
was a large round hole into which porters inserted these 
lamps as they ran along the roofs of the carriages. This 
being a day train, however, there was no lamp, and one 
could see the blue sky through the hole. It happened that 
Mr. Oakley and I were both leaning back in our respective 
corners, so that we both saw a kind of ball of whitish 
mist forming in that hole, and a moment later it had 
condensed into a piece of folded paper, which fell to 
the floor of our compartment. I started forward, picked it 
up, and handed it at once to Madame Blavatsky, taking it 
for granted that any communication of this nature must be 
intended for her. She at once unfolded it and read it, 
and I saw a red flush appear upon her face.

"Umph," she said, "that's what I get for trying to warn 
you people of the troubles that lie before you," and she 
threw the paper to me.

"May I read it?" I said, and her only reply was, "Why do 
you think I gave it to you?"

I read it and found it to be a note signed by the Master 
Koot Hoomi, suggesting very gently but quite decidedly 
that it was perhaps a pity, when she had with her some 
earnest and enthusiastic candidates, to give them so very 
gloomy a view of a path which, however difficult it might 
be, was destined eventually to lead them to joy unspeakable. 
And then the message concluded with a few words of kindly 
commendation addressed to each of us by name.

=======================================================

Many witnesses of psychic materializations have seen
an appearance of a cloud of white mist out of which the object
would materialize. I have many instances of this
in my files which cover a period of the last 200 years.
The Theosophical reports seem to simply reconfirm the general 
characteristics of this type of phenomena. Whereas Bart
only sees sleight of hand and psychological phenomena, we
may actually be seeing part of the outer mechanism by which 
materializations enter the physical realm from a more subtle 
dimension. It may be that Bart does not believe in planes
or dimensions other than the physical although one would
think most if not all students of Theosophy would be open
to such concepts.
