In the September 1861 edition of The Spiritual Magazine, page 386, we hear of a Dr. John F. Gray, who supposedly had "the largest practice of any physician in New York." Dr. Gray supplied this account from a friend who claimed to have seen an apparition of his wife:
"A globular light rose up from the floor behind me, and as it became brighter a face, surmounted by a crown, was distinctly seen by the medium and myself. Next, the head appeared, as if covered with a white veil: this was withdrawn after the figure had risen some feet higher, and I recognised unmistakeably the full head and face of my wife, surrounded by a semi-circle of light about 18 inches in diameter. The recognition was complete, derived alike from the features and her natural expression. The globe of light was then raised, and a female hand held before it was distinctly visible. Each of these manifestations was repeated several times, as if to leave no doubt in our minds. Now the figure, coming lower down and turning its head, displayed falling over the globe of light, long flowing hair which even in its shade of colour, appeared like the natural tresses of my wife, and like hers was unusually luxuriant."
