CONVERSING WITH THE DEPARTED IN A DREAM.
The following appeared in the “Weekly Mail,” Cardiff, for June 18, 1910:—“The Rev. Hugh Roberts, Rhydymain, Dolgelly, discoursed on “The Intermediate State” on a recent Sunday, and in the course of the sermon related the substance of a conversation which he had had with departed friends. “Recently in a dream,” he said, “I conversed with an old deacon friend who has been in the intermediate state for some time, and was assured by him that he was not in a state of inertia by any means. It is a ‘country’ where everybody has something to do—where one and all contribute to make each other happy. However, they pine even in the intermediate state—some are longing for the circles which they left on earth, others pining for their bodies. But all longing will cease when the Spirit has completed the heavenly bodies.”
