Keely and His
Discoveries

- From the Preface: "This is the thing which has
happened in the case which this little volume comes forth to relate and
explain. It is not intended to unfold the systematic methods of the
gifted genius concerning whom it speaks; that will come, in his own
words, in due time. The aim of this volume is to show the course of
events in relation to his researches; and to open the mystery of how it
came about that he should have been so much misunderstood and hindered.
It tells how he, in the dim dawn of initial inspiration, first glimpsed
and touched THE POWER which is about to be given to the possession of
mankind for the supply of wants, and the relief of toil. How he
struggled and wrestled like the patriarch of old who said, "I will not
let Thee go, except Thou bless me." How men of the world, seeing the
struggle and estimating the power, said, "Make haste and harness this
power to our machinery, and we shall pay you." How, is his need of
means, he was tempted and fell; making an attempt to harness to
machinery a power whose very form and kind he had not yet been given to
discern. And then, when this too hasty attempt had failed, how the
disappointed world laughed and mocked, and fumed, and called him an
impostor.
This volume seeks to explain this KEELY MYSTERY; and to show that
although a mistake was made, it was only a passing mistake. The mistake
has been rectified; and the seer, now in possession of peace and
privacy, has fully sighted the power, and is making progress in
bringing it into subjugation."
