Silent Second Sight System by Adrian Plate

This is a typewritten transcript of a handwritten manuscript, ca. 1905, outlining the method behind Charles Morritt’s “silent” Second Sight routine. Included are methods for other mental magic feats, among them the Chess Knight’s Tour, Bank Note Test, Card Test and Addition Test.

The Famous “Silent Second Sight System” as used by Harry Keller and Chas. Morritt Perfected & improved by Mr. A. Berol of Berol & Belmonte.

Morritt was perhaps the first magician to devise a method of transmitting information to a blindfolded assistant without using a series of code words. Instead, he devised a code that was transmitted silently. This manuscript outlines one such – and perhaps the same – secret yet silent code.
