A SUNDAY AT SURRENCY.
AN INTERESTING ACCOUNT FROM THE
SPIRIT LAND THE ENTIRE
FAMILY INTERVIEWED.
A Reliable Report of the Mysterious
Phenomena.
As we intimated in our issue of Satur
day, we now have the pleasure of laying
before the readers of the News an intelli
gent, correct and interesting account of the
late wonderful phenomenal manifestations
at Surrency, No. G, on the iiacon & Brun
swick Railroad :
Savannah, Oct. 28, 1872.
E'lifor Morniny Hews:
According to promise, I horewilh trans
mit vou the most important portions of an
interview had on yesterday with the Sur
rency family, whose recent iuyenous
llistory i,as go,je so far towards exciting
the attention of our citizens and the public
generally.
Tie 7 p. m. Macon train on the Atlantic
and Gulf Railroad leaving your city on the
evening of the 20th inst-, bore j our corres
pondent safely to
fcCLBEXCY STATION,
on the Macon and Drunswirk Railroad, and
the sen't of the late mysterious sfances.
j We left the cars at 1!?; o'clock on Satur
day night, and took u casual survey of our
s uroundiims. It is certainly one of the
! List i l.-i.es that 1 would suppose
- - ' - " -
i f ' ironlrmiin
or a magician to display-
Vs skill.
the nous?:,
comfortable, though built in an olden style,
is situale 1 near the railroad and near the
centre of a circle of cypress ponds, sur
rounding lands of a low, dump nature, and
covered with saw palmetto. The train icit j
and we proceeded to the house, where we '
found several young men around a origin
lire. We soon enlivened th"? scene with
jukes, ghost stories, etc., and in this way
passed oil the remainder of the night, and
the next day proceeded to co.mus? with
eiiflereut members of the family, witnesses
of the late exciting scenes.
mi:. A. r. sruuKxrv,
the owner of the place, was the first whom
we approached ; but as he was in this city
at the commencement c--f the affair, he only j
told us a noi l ion e f what was done, and I
which was told by members of his family
who witnessed the whole proceeding. Un
his return he WoS made acquainted with
what was going on, and soon after wit
nessed several mysteries himself, but we
emit them, as they Will coma in under the
testimony of the others.
THE MOST .SINGULAR TillXC
tol.i us by Mr. Surrency was the affair of
the clock, already mentioned in ll:e Macon
Enterprise., and which was witnessed by
the representative of that journal. The
clock was hanging to the wall in the parlor,
and had ever been characterized lor the
correctness of its time. Suddenly with a
WK1KL, UL'ZZIXG XOISK,
the hands began to move around with ex
ceedingly rapid motion, the hour hand ex
actly live mi-iutes ahead of ihe nili.ut
hand. Iu this singular position tlu y con
tinued to move for seventeen miouies, in
in which time it had described live hours,
and each time as it arrived at the bJ o'clock
maik it would pause and strike, though
with the greatest irregularity. S. .nietiiu'
it would s'rike one hour lor another, such
as twe.ve for one, &e. , and at the i-iui f
ihe live hours ceased its wild mvi-u',e
and was regulated by a party present, and
who w as a watchmaker and jeweller by
trade. It was then started, and ever since
has kept its usual good time, which was
always very accurate, being kept according
to the standard time of the M. and 1. II.
11. During this occurrence ihe genthmen
present looked at their watches and found
that each had tbe proper time, so that the
idea of
A CONCEALED MACSET
is dissipated, as the watches as well as the
clock would have been affected by its
presence. While speaking of the clock, 1
wi!i mention that on Sunday evening, in
the presence .f your corre.p indent, ami
two or three friends that, at the hour of
eight, it struck only four, while it had !
been striking correctly fiom twelve the
night previous, and I distinctly remeoiher j
counting siven on the evening in question, j
at that hour. We merely mention this as ,
it occurs to us now, witlu tit ascribing it to
any cause, either supernatural or the de- )
laugement of machinery. It continued
running, and when examined was appa
rently all right. This is ail that we wit
nessed during our stay, as we arrived too
late to see any of the peiformances, which
ceased
AIJOL'T TWILIGHT
on Friday evening, the 2."iih, and very nearly
at the same hour at which it began on
Thursday, the 17th. As I have said Mr.
Surrencv was in this city at the beginuinc
of the affair, and was expected home that j
evening. The train, how ever, was behind, ;
and his daughter, a young lady of, 1 sup- j
pose, 17 years, walked out to the track and
looked up he raihoad to see if she could
discover the lights of the expected train.
While anxiously 1 e king she disrinctly
SAW AN CUJLJC'i'
in the form of a man approaching her, but
apparently wiih no bad intention. She,
however, turned and walked quietly back
to the steps, and just as she reached I hem
heard something like a chunk come whiz
zing through the air and fell to the ground
quite ileal her. For fear of l eing laughed
at for cowarelice, tdae concluded not to men
tion it to the family, and sat down on the
steps. She looked immediately in the di
rection she had come, but could sec noth
ing. the ArrARiriox.
i She could see it in no direction, though ever ,,f'c!1 Sfen L'-v anv of tlje fa'uiJy, that ; to keep her '-head abeve water." The ne
i the grounds are quite open, and we feel j seemed at all m stcrious, except the appa- 1 cessary appliances were soon rigged up,
i sure, from the distance shown us, that she : rition seen lV the J01111 lady. No mys- 1 and the poor animal was raised to tho
could plainly have seen au object of a much
smaller size especially when moving As
she took her seat on the step, other thincs
similar to the first fell around her in very
rapid succession, and in quite close prox -
imity, noue striking her. They all came
from the direction whence she had seen tbe
F.ppantiou. sue men moved into the par-
..v. n.v.. ..v.4 iai-
were so-no gentlemen, among
n.ter. She still said nothing cf
lor, wnere
them a mini
n, ami went into
the K1TCHEA-,
which adjoins the house, where her mother
was superintending the preparation cf sup
per. As she was going from the parlor
through a passage-way to the kitchen, she
could distinctly hear things similar to those
described, falling in tiie yard and against
the end of the house, apparently moving in
the direction of the kitchen. Ky the time
she had gained the entrance, brickbats,
bottles, fce., were falling
IN THICK PROFUSION
on every side. The gentlemen present
were called, and diligent search made,
though no one could be seen, yet those
missiles were falling around. It then got
among the pots on tbe stove, threw them
off, overturned the coffee-pot, threw crock
ery, knives, &c, about the floor, and en
tered the house, where similar actions tok
place. Uooks, glasses and other thmgs
w ere scattered about the floor. A younger
brother of Mr. Surrency was here sent for,
and remained with the family during the
night. He was one of the principal w it-
nessesofthe
stkaxge sckxks,
and detailed us many interesting items,
One in particular yvas, that while standing
before the fire in the parlor, looking to
wards some book-shelves iu the opposite
end of the room, he distinctly saw book
from the middle of a pile of six or eight
DRAW SLOWLY OUT,
describe an arch upward from the shelf,
and then gradually descend some six or
seven feet from the shelf, and lie quietly on
tne noor. lie picked it up, laid it back,
and the same motion was gone through
again. He then called Miss Surrency from
an adjoining room, and showed it to her as
it lay on the floor, and she said that she
had put it back from the same position
three times that day. The book was a
quarto volume of Walker's Dictionary, and
was shown to us. We could enumerate
very numerous instances of the kind, but
space forbids.
IT IS SINGULAR,
to say the least of it, that these things
c juld go on iu different parts of the house :
at tlie"saino tine, and that they usually
choose this manner of proceeding; and
frequently in open day time would they t,o
on inside the house and over the yard at
the same moment, and with articles of an
altogether different size and nature. We
were also shown
A LARGE GI.'EASE SIOT j
in the middle of the parlor floor, where a j
bottle of oil is said to have fallen. The j
bot tle was removed from the house for fear
of its coming in contact with fire, and
placed on a post in th-i back yard, when it
suddenly left, passed around to the front
of the house, came through the front door
while closed, fell on the tloor and broke
near the table where it formerly sat. The
spot was evidently caused from oil, and it
ceitainly fell from the direction of the front
door, as can be easily seen from its shape.
We were told that
MI;S. SfBIIEXCV
left her home for a day by the advice of
her husband and friends, and with her
daughter went to the house of a friend (Mr.
Patterson), some two miles distant. Anxi
ous to get all the iufoim ition we could, we
sat out and walked to Mr. P's. And just
here cciiP3
THE STCAXGF-ST TAUT
of our tale. Mis. S. and daughter did
leave home during the week, and went to
Sirs. P.'s with th; intention of remaining
there, and as soon as they arrived at his
house the identical proceedings enacted at
Mr. Sunency's began at Mr. Patterson's
and ceased at Suriencv's as soon as the
ladies left

SAME FKKAK.S
began again. They ceased at Patterson's
when she left there and have never re

and was seen there by your correspondent
and friends. These strange things have

mesmerized, never saw a mesmerist or
spiritualist that she knows of, never read
a work on

and has never thought about it except when
she heard, others mention it. The same
may be said of her daughter, w hile Mr.
Surrency has always been a strong oppo
nent cf the doctiine of spiritualism h any
form. He is a pliin. practical farmer, a
well-to-do and popular citizen, and has an
excellent name among his neighbors, many
of whom we met, at hishotidP, and all of the

that human agencies cculd operate so dif
fusely over a house and grounds, in the
presence of hundreds, all on the alert, and
yet not be detected, unless we assume the
miprobable position that a man's eyes and
brains are cf little value to him. That the
scheme is concocted from motives of profit,
is alike futile, as we were assured by dis
interested authority, that in the past week
Mr. Sunency had fed no less than
exi; thousand people,
lodging them at night, ond all without
changing ore dime. We ca ; bear witness
te this to some extent from hist Sunday's
observations, and judieg from what we
j saw iu the neighborhood of Mr. Suriencv's
, cane patch, we would guess that a goodly
j number had paid court there as well as at
the table. That such things are done by
. either himself or family, is equally absurd,
as it is highly improLable that they would
i continue a thing so
