STRANGE, IF NOT A LIE.
BURIED ALIVE AND AFTERWARO
BROUGHT TO LIFE.
Case of Grave Robbery That Was
Bona Eide "Resurrection" Re
suscitated on the Dissecting
Table, but Insane.

GREAT HARRINGTON. Mass, Dec IA
startling romance has just come to light in
Egremont township, and is causing much ex-
citement, In 1879 Miss Estelle Newman,
daughter of an influential and wealthy fam,
lily, apparently died after long illness from
spinal complaint. There was an elaborate
funeral ceremony, and the body was buried
in due form. At the time of Estelle's sup
posed death and burial, a young medical
student named Worth H. Wright was home
from the Albany medical college. This DR.
Wright graduated in year or two and be
gan pTacticing medicine, but he was indicted
to intcmPorance and one night at Newton,
c, nm, fell into the hands Of roughs AMI was
murdered.
1t is now asserted in the report which
caases the excitement that Wallace Wright,
brother of DR.. Wright, says that on the
night Miss Newman was buried, in company
with his brother and two medical students,
Le proceeded 10 the cemetery and eXhumed.
Miss Newman's body and, filling the grave
carefully as before, the remains were placed
Ia sack with good care, and conveyed to
the Albany dsSecting room, where, to the
horror and surprise of all, the lady, with
whom DR.. Wright had for several years been
well acquainted, was found to be alive, and
in a liriet period came out of her trance. She
was insane before the trance, and so she con
tihued. Being tenderiy nursed she so far re-
covered that she WAS taken to some insane
a,yium in Schoharie county, New York,
where sic is still alive. She frequently
speaks OF Dr. Wright, now deceased.
