These letters were introduced by Vsevolod Solvyoff in his Russian work A Modern Priestess of Isis and appeared in English a short time later, in 1895, in a work translated by Walter Leaf of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR).
Sometimes, when you are reading the claims of others, it is helpful to ask yourself what variety of meanings could be attributed to a claim.
The reason that this has to be brought up is that Beatrice Hastings in her "Defence" series has shown how on numerous occasions, the SPR has avoided using information that would hurt their case, and has misrepresented other evidence.

 Scotland on Sunday - Sport - SRU must take a leaf from Walter's book
WALTER Smith is showing just how much influence a good leader can have on morale and results of the national football team.
The real problem lies as ever with the midfield trio of 10, 12 and 13 where the Scotland squad has no-one to match the intuition and skills of those available to Wales or Ireland, never mind New Zealand.
Scotland may claim a few better results, they will almost certainly play with more spirit than they did under the last coach, but until truly international inside backs are found any improvement in the national fortunes is unlikely to match those of the Scotland football team under Walter Smith.
