Excerpt from A Future: A Critical Inquiry Into the Scientific Value of the Alleged Evidences That Man's Conscious Personality Survives the Life of the Body

In my position as editor of "The Humanitarian Review" - a magazine professedly "devoted to the study of [among other things] mind and psychic phenomena" - I had been often asked by correspondents to state my "belief," or my opinion, as to the existence of a human "spirit" entity and of a "future life" after death. But, considering mere belief and opinions of little importance, I preferred not to publish any response until I could have time to make a deliberate, well-considered, comprehensive statement of the facts and principles upon which my belief and opinions rest, as of immeasurably more importance to others than such belief and opinions themselves. At length the requests seemed to merge into demands, and I decided to publish a short series of articles, in response, in "The Review," but not so comprehensive in scope and minute in details, because of limited space in the magazine, as the importance of the subject really deserved.

The First Paper of the series was printed in "The Review" of May, 1906, with the intention of limiting the series to the monthly issues of that year, but the papers were so well received from the very first that I concluded to modify my plan so as to extend the series some three months longer. And in reponse to requests and suggestions of many approving readers, I decided to issue the series in "pamphlet form" as soon as through the magazine. But, as each succeeding paper appeared, the interest of readers became more and more general and intense - as inferred from letters from "Review" correspondents.
