Note 18 — Chapter VI · SOME RECENTLY OBSERVED PSYCHICAL PHENOMENA
L. I. (Laura I.) Finch translation
The amnesia, which appears to follow medianic phenomena, bears a certain relation to the amnesia which follows dreams. It is probably due to the weakness of the links between the conscious personality and the forgotten images. The links exist, but are not strong enough to bind those images to the usual stream of personal consciousness. They serve as clues, however, and the reappearance of the images at a given moment is due to the working of the usual laws of association.—Maxwell.
