George Woods and Betty Green recorded a session with Leslie Flint as the medium in which a mother spoke with her son, Michael Fearon, who had been killed in action at Normandy on June 9, 1944. The recording was the subject of a BBC interview on October 8, 1963. Mrs. Fearon recognized her son's voice without question and carried on an extended conversation with him. This is the recording of a small portion of the seance. You may start the recording and listen as you read the transcript.

After the session, Mrs. Fearon said without doubt she was speaking with her deceased son. This is the transcript of the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) interview with her about the session (from http://www.xs4all.nl/~wichm/fearon.html, by Michael Rogge ). The tape of Michael Fearon's seance conversation with his mother had just been played:

That was a conversation between a mother and her son. A taperecording as a matter of fact, made in a room something like this one here, but the recording was taken 11 years after the son died, killed in action three weeks after the D-Day landings in Normandy in France, during the last war. But throughout Britain there are thousands of people who believe implicitly in the authenticity of this conversation, and others like it--talks between the living and the dead. But what about the woman most directly concerned in this conversation? What does she think about this? Mrs.Fearon, as Mike's mother, what makes you so sure that it's your son's voice that you can hear?

Mrs. Fearon
|
Well, Mike was twenty-seven when he died and I'd been with him all that time. They were day boys for a long time, and they were my life, and I ought to know at the end of that, oughtn't I?

The voice on the taperecorder and the voice you remember, are they very similar?
|
Mrs. Fearon
|
Yes.
|
Williams
|
The same pitch, the same inflections?
|
Mrs. Fearon
|
Just about.

Several years later, his mother was with him in the afterlife.
Several years later, George Woods and Betty Green sat with Leslie Flint in another seance in which Michael Fearon came through. This time, his mother had crossed over and was with him.
