"If two of your friends are on the other side of a thick wall, you may not be able to recognize them by their voices. The wall prevents clear hearing. If you wish to recognize them, the wall must not remain between you and them. This is what we are now doing. In order to recognize the voice of truth, we are removing our psychological wall.

John Worth Edmonds

Judge John Worth Edmonds (1816-1874) was a noted legal scholar and member of the New York State Supreme Court.

Judge Edmonds resigned his position on the bench but continued to compile an annual compendium of New York statutes. He also became an apologist for Spiritualism and, later, when she sought a divorce, a defender of Cora Hatch.
