William Thomas Stead (July 5, 1849 - April 15, 1912) was a British
journalist. He was born in Embleton, Northumberland, the son of a
Congregational minister. He died on the RMS Titanic when it struck
an iceberg and sank. Excerpts from the title: ...But what with the
superstitious credulity of the one age and the equally
superstitious unbelief of another, it is necessary to begin from
the beginning and to convince a skeptical world that apparitions
really appear. In order to do this it is necessary to insist that
your ghost should no longer be ignored as a phenomenon of Nature.
He has a right, equal to that of any other natural phenomenon, to
be examined and observed, studied and defined. It is true that he
is a rather difficult phenomenon; his comings and goings are rather
intermittent and fitful, his substance is too shadowy to be
handled, and he has avoided hitherto equally the obtrusive
inquisitiveness of the microscope and telescope.
