“Many of the Fox family’s close friends were discovering their own gift for mediumship. Isaac Post found that if he entered a trance, he was guided by the spirits to write down their messages. In 1851, the year that Uncle Tom’s Cabin first appeared in serial form and Hawthorne’s House of the Seven Gables and Melville’s Moby Dick were published, Isaac compiled messages from William Penn, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Emanuel Swedenborg, and others into a three-hundred-page volume called Voices from the Spirit World; Being Communications From Many Spirits by the Hand of Isaac Post, Medium. The messages, Isaac said, had been transcribed through automatic writing that sometimes occurred in the presence of “A.L. Fish (a rapping medium).” In 1852 Charles Hammond, the Universalist minister who had watched in awe as the furniture danced and floated in front of him at one of the sisters’ early seances, produced a book called Light from the Spirit World; The Pilgrimage of Thomas Paine, and Others, to the Seventh Circle in the Spirit World.”

“In 1858 George Taylor had visited Sweden to investigate techniques of massage or “passive gymnastics,” methods that he understood could relieve the symptoms of chronically ill patients. On his return he had opened his own establishment. Housed in two handsome, adjacent townhouses on Sixth Avenue and West Thirty-Eighth Street, Dr. Taylor’s health sanitarium became one of the most popular and respected institutions of its day, a time when the wealthier middle classes, much like those of today, retreated to spas to benefit from regimens of water cures, exercise, massage, vegetarian diets, and—something that is offered rarely today—vibratory stimulation. Many of the treatments spawned by the craze for health reform were designed to cure neurasthenia and hysteria, along with symptoms such as listlessness and paralysis.”
