John NJ. Spear accompanied by Somebody e1-wife,

Dur pg the Summer John NJ Spear has been engaged
in receiving communications from the Spirit sphere,
and transmitting them TO Boston for publication.

In addition TO these communications the Spiritual
residents of kiautone have been frequently favored
with promises Of valuable discoveries pong the ruins
of the ancient harmonial city, and have had daily in.
tercourse with the Spirits in relation TO the future OF
the valley Of Kautone. Indeed the Spirits long since
settled the question that the valley OF the kiauione
should again become the site Of great barmonial

the Affection was the most important. The marriage

Codding, was decidedly 10 favor Of Free Love.
A Young woman from Cattaraugus succeeded Mr..
