Mary Hollis,
Mrs. Mary Hollis (afterwards Mrs. Hollis-Billing) was a remarkable American
Medium who visited England in 1874, and again in 1880, when a presentation and
address were given her in London by representative Spiritualists. A fine account
of her varied mediumship is given by Dr. N. B. Wolfe in his book, "Startling
Facts in Modern Spiritualism." Mrs. Hollis was a lady of refinement, and
thousands obtained evidence and consolation through her powers. Her two spirit
guides, "James Nolan" and an Indian named "Ski," talked freely in the Direct
Voice. At one of her seances, held at Mrs. Makdougall Gregory's house in
Grosvenor Square on January 21, 1880, a clergyman of the Church of England* "had
the thread of a conversation taken up by a spirit where it had been broken off
seven years before, and he professed himself perfectly satisfied with the
genuineness of the voice, which was very peculiar and distinctly audible to
those sitting on either side of the clergyman who was addressed."
