A TRAScE-B Bafying .Aiie "A paper
was read before the French Academy Of
Science, in which the following extraor-
binary instance was adduced as reason
for abolishing The present custom of bu-
rying so soon after death:
A young female had been twice pro-
nounced dead when only in a trance, but
had recovered in both instances in time TO
prevent being buried alive. A third
trance came on, and in consequence Of
what had previously occurred, PERMISSION
was obtained from the constituted author
lilies for the body to remain above ground
as long as decomposition should NOT have
taken place. A week-ten days passed
|a@ay-there was still no decomposition,
but all the medical men declared that she
was dead, and at length she was laid in
her coffin. Only few minutes before
the coffin was 10 be nailed down, and
while the bell of the village church was
already tolling for her funeral. female
from an adjoining village, who had been
'HC oSuooi~lCiiOW VI tHC suppOsCu uSiubOt,
came 10 take last farewell. She stoop-
ed to kiss the lips Of her departed friend,
and remaining in that position for some
time, the bystanders attempted TO remove
her, lest her emotion should be injurious
TO her. She waived them off with her
hand, and remained with her lips upon
those of her friend, and breathing, AZ it
turned out afterwards, the warm breath of
life into her lungs. At length she .ex-
claims, "she lives" and rising from the
body, pointed out unequivocal signs Of
life. She stated that as she was ssing
her friend, she fancied she fel, her breath,
and in few minutes was con, inced OF the
fact. The female was taken ont Of the
coffin and placed in warm bed, and in
the course Of few hours, fully revived.
She stated that she was, during her trance,
fully sensible 10 all that was passing a
round, and that she even heard the death
hell toll, but was utterly incapable of
speech or sign 10 show that she was not
dead
