    Buchanan, author of A Manual of Psychometry, has previously 'made several predictions which have been verified'. He now predicts that, as 'periodicity is a law of nature', we are 'approaching our revolutionary period', during which there will 'occur a geological convulsion before which all the earthquakes of the past will seem the merest trifles'.
