"Every detail of condition is regulated either by rules 

 dictated by, and implying deference to, the living, or to 

 still greater extent by tradition, inherited from the dead, 

 or supposed to involve pleasure or anger on the part of 

 their spirits, according as the prescribed custom is punc- 

 tiliously performed or neglected." 



' Individualism ' by W. Schooling, Westminster Review, 

 November 1892, p. 525.
