The Case for Spiritualism is an article written Arthur Conan Doyle first published in The Graphic on 21 february 1920. It was a reply to Edward Clodd's attack:The Revival of the Cult of Spiritualism: A Scathing Criticism (14 february 1920). The Case for Spiritualism "The reply was immediate," Earl Fornell writes in The Unhappy Medium: Spiritualism and the Life of Margaret Fox.

Reader Ian Dreaver shares a recent experience of visiting his old friend Margaret Pearson, a hugely respected medium now in her nineties. I would describe Margaret Pearson as one of the unsung heroes of Spiritualism. She worked as a medium for over 60 years, and although she never officially retired, she can now be said to have done so. Even so, the religious and social movement inspired child mediums, There, during the winter of 1847-48, 15-year-old Maggie Fox and her Women benefitted from the lack of centralized 27 authority and from the self-made ethos of the movement. Anyone, in theory, could 28 develop as a medium. Moreover, Spiritualism s most central metaphor was the tele- 29 graph instant and invisible communication over space could translate to the reaches of 30 heaven. Jencken died in 1881. In 1883 the widowed medium visited Russia, on Alexander Aksakof's invitation, and was consulted about the auspices of the coronation of the Czar. A few years later the three sisters found themselves in violent disagreement. Margaret Fox was the chief cause of the trouble. (Signed) MARGARET FOX. April 11, 1848. Statement John D. Fox.
