In Wieland mysterious voices are heard at intervals by various members of the familyT To the hero, who has inherited a tendency to religious fanaticism, they seem to be of divine origin, and when a voice bids him sacrifice those who are dearest to him, he obeys implicitly, „ Tie slays his wife and children, and his sister only escapes death by accident. After this catastrophe. it_ proves that the voices are produced by a skilled ventriloquist, Carwin, who ha...s been admitted as an intimate ttend of the fafliily. Realising that this explanation may seem somewhat incredible. Brown seeks to make it appear more plausible by dwelUng on Wieland's abnormal state of mind, which would render, him pecuHarly- open to suggestion. Carwin's motive for thus persecuting the Wieland family with his accursed gift is never satisfactorily explained. His attitude is apparently that of aii obtuse psychologist, who does not reahse how serious the conse- quence of his experiments may be.
