Mr. Dombre, President of the Spiritist Society of Marmande, sends us the following:

In five days and with the support of the good Spirits we rid a thirteen-year-old young lady from a very violent and dangerous obsession under the influence of a bad Spirit since May 8th last. She used to go through pitiful daily crises at five pm, every day without exception. The girl lives in a distant region and her relatives thinking that her disease was epilepsy no longer wanted to talk about it. Nevertheless, one of our members that lives nearby heard about the case and observing the facts more attentively was then able to easily identify the true cause. Following the advice of or spiritual guides we then started working immediately. On the eleventh of this month in our 8pm session we started by evoking and moralizing the obsessing Spirit, praying for him and the victim, exerting a mental magnetization upon that Spirit. The sessions happened every evening and on Friday 15th the girl experienced her last crises. She still suffers the effects of the long and violent shocks, showing some sadness, languidness, and tears as we were previously informed. We were informed daily about the phases of the disease by the good Spirits.

Such a cure that on other occasions would have been considered miracles and on others acts of witchcraft for which we would have been either sanctified or burnt to death produced a certain vibe in town.”

We congratulate our brothers from Marmande for the good result obtained in that case and we are happy to see that they took advantage of the advices contained in the Spiritist Review when we published similar cases reported lately. They were then able to convince themselves about the strength of collective action when directed with sincere faith and true charity.
