X PREFACE. 



Nevertheless we publish Bjorklund's 

 book because we heartily sympathize 

 with his endeavor to justify those senti- 

 ments which instinctively point out that 

 death is not a finality, and that the pur- 

 pose of life is not limited to the span of 

 our days between the cradle and the 

 grave, but that it has a further and 

 fuller significance. 



We hope that Bjorklund's book will 

 be welcomed as the contribution of an 

 earnest and prominent scientific think- 

 er on the important question, "If a man 

 die, shall he live again?" 



THE PUBLISHERS.
