have bssa witnessed on earth, were being
made IN our city every day. We have
witnessed what were reasonably claimed
to be spiritual manifestations number of
| times w;thln the last two weeks. We
have notes Of various demonstrations,
which in due time shall be given 10 the
world. There have been manifestations
about which we SHALL speak Tomorrow,
that are get-ai-able manifestations, by
