Scope and content
Refers to a conversation he had with Henry Sidgwick shortly before his death. Recalls that they discussed various matters of general interest, including disestablishment. They also began to discuss Psychical Research, and he reminded Sidgwick of some reports on alleged cases of tuberculosis being cured at Lourdes. Claims to have been deeply impressed to hear Sidgwick say that 'if one could live one's life over again there would be much one would not devote so much of [ones] time to', but that he did not say what he referred to. Louis assumes that he was talking about Psychical Research.
