SHE HAS MANUSCRIPT F.
TO PROVE HER CLAIM
- e.".
Her Letter RambIes In Way That
Indicates Some Sort Of
control

The promotion committee had no
thought, when IL started the idea of a
Mark Twain Day, how far II would
reach. IL started something, however,
which has to do with the spirits and
letter received from Kansas City
tells of the control exerted by the
spirit of the dead writer over another
writer of that city and contains a
message from the spirit world for Ha.
wall. - 49,.
The writer Of the letter, Ida Belle
White, woman who has lived for
twenty-five years in Kansas and is well
known there, claims that she has been
inspirted in her work by the spirit of
Samuel l.. Clemens, and has manu-.
scripts and q book to prove il. She
claims there are numbers Of reliable
persons Of her city and state who will
bear her ont in her statement of hear
ing the spirit of Mark Twain speak
ing to her and giving her instruction
and encouragement.
The writer Of the letter hopes to be
able to make visit here some of these
days and prove to any doubling
Thomases that what she has written is
true. She claims not to be looking
for notoriety nor the revenue which
usually is sought by persons inspired
in the manner she is. Being sure that
the people of Hawaii will be inter
ested in her statement she has taken
her pen in hand and sent along her
thoughts on the matter.
Long Time To Prepare
She says further that il took her
one full year to prepare herself to
receive the messages she gets from the
other world, but now she is an adept
and no mistake about il. The mes
sage from the dead humorist, in which
one familiar with his style cannot fail
to recognize, is as follows:
Dear Lady White: The happiness
it gives me when see can bring back
messages from the great beyond! To-
day as I understand the article that was
referred to l will touch upon. In the
time of when was a visitor Of the Ha-
waiian Island, to go back to that time,
! will say has long since been stamp
ed on my memory. To speak of the ex
perience as well as the knowledge
gained thereof"
~ will first speak Of the inhabitance
as q whole. The National state Is to
be proud of the place called by its
name Hawaii Island. l am now going
to speak sparingly of the Race, but the
Climate and Landscape Holy. As to
my pleasing memory of the same never

The inhabitance are race to whom
one could refer as whole of intelli-
gence, in so many ways superior to
our own National states fguratively
speaking. Although bear in mind ]

seen flying in our own mother country
through the free air.
