Casting Out Devils in India.

The Comatic Telegraph gives an account OF
d recent case of exorclsm:
Casino out devils in India is extensively
practiced by the natives. We were present a
few weeks ago at an exercise OF exorcism. ne
possessed was young woman Oh about SIX
teen, hale and hearty in appearance and
withal, very good looking, as is the expression
aDnljed to native women. She, was much ex-
cited as she accompanied or rather preceded
her cxorcist, and broke out occasionally into
singing and dancing, with an energy ana
manner which showed thai she had no self
control. The party which went with her
stopped at a tree on the way, when the cAoF-
cist desired her to halt. His command IN,
stantly brought her PROSTATE before him, and
she rolled on the ground in violent conort1ons'
But her father objected to fixing the demon
to that tree, and accordingly the exorc'st ad-
dressed his patient in a tone OF sternness TO
rise and 60 on further. She did so, and with
running dance to the sound of the tomtom
and the Puiari's handdrum, she rushed along
seemingly unconscious Of all around her.
/ They halted then under a Palmyra tree, II
a desert place, near the foot of hllock
where the poor girl was desired to balance
herself gracefully to the music of the priest:
