General
James Davenport Whelpley (1817-1872), a noted polemicist on immigration and other subjects, was one of the owners of the American Whig Review, which published poems and stories by Edgar Allen Poe. Whelpley himself wrote stories with a supernatural or science fiction slant; in this example a jealous husband uses a listening device based on Chladni's researches to spy on his wife.
