I am insignificant in this gathering. My
humbleness has found its life's task -
:17:05
- in serving the great spirit that bears
the name, Albert Emanuel Vogler.
:17:11
Does Dr Vogler object to sitting down
awhile and discussing -
:17:15
- general questions
in relation to the enterprise?
:17:19
Well... Please be seated.
:17:31
Dr Vogler. You have announced an
entertainment in the town chronicle -
:17:35
- brimming with a range
of sensations.
:17:39
"Astounding,
never before witnessed curiosities."
:17:43
"Magical acts
derived from Oriental philosophy."
:17:48
"Health inducing magnets. Nerve
stimulation. Mind animation."
:17:54
- Is this your announcement?
- Commissioner.
:17:56
These ostentatious formulations
are not the work of Dr Vogler's hand.
:18:03
We'd be grateful if the doctor himself
would answer the question.
:18:08
Mr Vogler is deprived
of the gift of speech.
:18:13
He is dumb, gentlemen.
:18:17
Perhaps Mr Aman
is also deprived of the gift of speech?
:18:23
- I haven't heard you say anything.
- I haven't been asked, Commissioner.
:18:29
- You undertake magical seances?
- We haven't claimed that.
:18:34
- Your friend, Mr Tubal...
- We use devices, mirrors, projections.
:18:38
- It's simple and perfectly harmless.
- Another question...
:18:41
- Mr Vogler cures illnesses?
- We haven't said that.
:18:46
Mr Vogler recently, using
another name, toured Denmark.
:18:50
He made an appearance as a doctor
and received patients in inns.
:18:54
"Patients were magnetised according
to Mesmer's principles in a dim room."
