Excerpt from The Blind-Deaf: Supplement, Additions to a Monograph Published 1904 And when Eva Halliday, raised on signs, is rather more ¿uent than Linnie, and as all the Fanwood blind deaf, most skilful sign-readers, are very much more ¿uent than Linnie, the damage doesn't exist. It is possible that there may be some who do not believe that the blind - deaf can read signs. If such doubters really want to know the facts, let them shut their eyes, take hold lightly of a sign-maker's arms, and see how readily they read the signs made by the other. If the doubter is not versed in signs, let him, or her, get sign-makers and readers to try it for a demonstration. How this happens, is ludicrously simple when we think on it. A sign-maker does not see his signs, he just goes through the motions, when he has hold of a sign-maker's arms, with his own eyes shut, does he not feel the motion of his own arms and thereby recognize the signs?
