Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Surprising Case of Rachel Baker: Who Prays and Preaches in Her Sleep; With Specimens of Her Extraordinary Performance Taken Down Accurately in Short Hand at the Time; And Showing the Unparalleled Powers She Possesses to Pray, Exhort, and Answer Questions, During Her Unconscious State; Th In yielding to the request of my learned friends to submit to their disposal my sketch of the singular case upon which we were lately consulted, I hope I shall not only gratify their laudable curiosity, but furnish some interesting materials towards a theory of the delicate and complicated operations, of the human mind. Rachel Baker about twenty years old, experienced at the age of fourteen some religious concern, and in consequence thereof joined the Presbyterian Church in the county Onondaga New York. Becoming uneasy about two years afterwards she underwent a religious submersion and became a member of the Baptist church. To that society she has ever since been united. She is possessed of a constitution naturally good and it has never been materially impaired by disease. Since her connection with the latter society, she has been in a devout frame of mind, but never inclined to superstition on the one part, nor to enthusiasm on the other. Her deportment is sedate, reserved, and diffident. Being little prone to talk, she seldom commences a conversation, and even when spoken to is not fond of indulging in discourse. She has been in the habit of frequenting religious meetings, but in no other manner than the regular members of the society to which she belongs. Her moral character is fair and exemplary. Nevertheless, her faculties have been called into action after an uncommon manner. Once a day for about three years, or from the time of her second baptism she has suffered a paroxism which usually continues an hour.
