THE RIDDLE OF HOUDINI                                                                             continued



Other curious points, which may possibly come within the range of
coincidence, are connected with the death of Houdini.  For example,
there was a Mr. Gysel, who had shared in Houdini's views as to
Spiritualism. 

He wrote thus to a friend:



"MR. FRIKELL, -

"Something happened to me in my room on Sunday night, October 24th,
1926, 10:58:  Houdini had given me a picture of himself which I had
framed and hung on the wall.  At the above time and date, the picture
fell to the ground, breaking the glass.  I now know that Houdini will die.

Maybe there is something in these psychic phenomena, after all."



To this Mr. "Frikell" adds:


"As I think back on my own experience, I am inclined to agree maybe there
is, indeed, something to these psychic phenomena, after all."
