Was the Visible Orb a Death Omen?

 Below is an account found on page 159 of the October 1884 edition of the Journal of the Society for Psychical Research, which you can read here

"From the Rev. Stephen H. Saxby, Mount Elton, Clevedon. Mr. S. M. Saxby, the percipient, is now dead. 

About the year 1841 I was in a room with my father in our house in the Isle of Wight, when he exclaimed, 'Good God, what is that ?' starting up as he spoke, and apparently looking at something. He then turned to me and said that he had seen a ball of light pass through the room, and added, 'Depend upon it, Morse Simonds is dead.'  This was an old servant ill London, to whom he had been sending money, in illness. In course of post came information that she passed away at the very time in question. S,H.S."
