But Myers, among others, had no such intention and cherished no such illusion. He knew that the primary aim of the Society was not objective experimentation but the establishment of telepathy.

A memorial tablet to Myers was erected in Rome's Protestant cemetery. 1822:"Phantasms of the Living was criticized by a number of scholars when it appeared, one ground for the attack being the lack of written testimony regarding the apparitions composed shortly after they had been seen. In many instances several years had elapsed between the occurrence and a report of it being made to the investigators from the SPR." 506:, all the phenomena observed in the Cambridge sittings were the result of trickery.
