said, "I know your name--I know my name." Then she would not answer any more questions but remained immobile, with fixed gaze. When her going home was mentioned, however, she flushed and tears ran down her cheek, though no change in the fixedness of her attitude or in her facial expression was seen. _Nov. 1._ Lies flat on her back with her hands elevated. She is markedly resistive. _Nov. 2._ Free from muscular tension and more responsive. When asked whether she felt like talking, she said in a whining tone, "No, go away--I have to go through enough." Then she spoke of not knowing how long the nights and days were, of not having known which way she was going. When asked who the physician was she whimpered and said, "You came to tell me what was right." She called him "Christ" and another physician "Jim" (husband's name), though, later in the interview, she gave their correct names. When asked about the name of another physician, she said: "He looks like my cousin, he was here, they all came the first night.

Again: "I went to Heaven in spirit, I came back again--the wedding ring kept me on Earth--I will have to be crucified now." (Tell me about it.) "Jim will have to pick my eyes out--I think it is him. Oh, it is my little girl." (Who told you?) "The spirits told me." Again: "Little birds my children--I can't see them any more--I must stay here till I die." (Why?) "The spirits told me--till I pick every one of my eyes out and my brains too." When asked what day it was, she said, "It must be Good Friday." (Why?) "Because God told me I must die on the cross as he did." When asked why she had not spoken the day before, she said that "Jesus Christ in Heaven" had told her she should not tell anything, "ti
