description

Summary

This article from the Springfield (Massachusetts) Union recounts the conclusion of the controversy surrounding the medium known as "Margery," in which Houdini had embroiled himself by challenging the authenticity of Margery's psychic powers. According to the article, a majority of a committee of investigators for the Scientific American, one of whom was Houdini himself, concluded after nearly a year of inquiry that Margery had "failed to produce evidence of s̀upernormal phenomena.'"
