Francis Ward Monck : ウィキペディア英語版
Francis Ward Monck
Francis Ward Monck (born 1842) was a British clergyman and spiritualist medium.〔Antonio Melechi. (2008). ''Servants of the Supernatural: The Night Side of the Victorian Mind''. Random House. p. 229〕
==Biography==

Monck was born in Portsmouth, Hampshire. He claimed to have psychic experiences as a child. He was a clergyman who began his career as a minister of the Baptist Chapel in Earls Barton, he was interested in spiritualism and became a medium.〔Raymond Buckland. (2005). ''The Spirit Book: The Encyclopedia of Clairvoyance, Channeling, and Spirit Communication''. Visible Ink Press. p. 264〕 On 3 November 1876 in Huddersfield a sitter H. B. Lodge stopped the séance and demanded that Monck be searched. Monck ran from the room, locked himself in another room and escaped out of a window. A pair of stuffed gloves was found in his room, as well as cheesecloth, reaching rods and other fraudulent devices in his luggage.〔Lewis Spence. (1991). ''Encyclopedia of Occultism & Parapsychology''. Gale Research Company. p. 1106〕 After a trial Monck was convicted for his fraudulent mediumship and was sentenced to three months in prison.〔Adin Ballou. (2001). ''The Rise of Victorian Spiritualism''. Routledge. p. 16〕
William Barrett also caught Monck in fraud with "a piece of white muslin on a wire frame with a black thread attached, being used by the medium to simulate a partially materialised spirit."〔Arthur Conan Doyle. (1975). ''The History of Spiritualism''. Arno Press. p. 305〕 In his séances Monck placed a musical clock on a table, covered it with a cigar- box, and claimed spirits caused it to play. It was exposed as a trick as Monck had hidden a small music box that he would play in his trousers.〔Walter Mann. (1919). ''The Follies and Frauds of Spiritualism''. London: Watts & Co. pp. 40-41〕
