Dec.3o,Jan.6 *olk~Vv6ys aqd /olk-S^v,, Throughout history folk more lias earned accounts nr stories and legends of the dead who have returned to the physical world to visit loved ones, avenge wrongs, or complete important tasks left unfinished as a result of their deaths. It has been suggested that living persons who are able to see such apparitions may either be suffering from such intense emotion that their imaginations work overtime or else they are especially marked or gifted to view the supernatural. In the latter instance, there is an Appalachian belief that a child born with a veil over its head (a thin mem brane similar to that inside an egg shell) has that special power. In the midst of a crowd of people such a person may be the only one to view the risen dead. Mr. King Sturgill, Jr., of Bristol. Tennessee, recently sent us an interesting account of such a phenomenon. His letter follows without com ment. ‘‘Sometime ago 1 pro mised you that I would tell you some things that my Aunt Mary told me when I was small during the 1920‘5. I wonder if you have ever heard of such a thing, or anyone else for that matter. "She said when she was just a little girl, her uncle lived just below them and he had an office in one room of the house. One day her aunt found him slumped over on his desk. dead. “She said that he kept coming back and would always go in his office. So one day her aunt came up to her house and asked her father if he would go down and speak to him. "He agreed on that so she got up on the horse behind her dad and rode down there. "Well, the uncle walked in and her father said, ‘ln the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost, what have you come back for?’ “The uncle said that he had buried his money in the upper right comer of the garden. Then he told them how to divide it among the children and to give the they found the two pots that she got down in the hole and removed the boards from thb top of the pots. They then brought the pots to the back porch and poured the money out on an old wash stand and divided it as he had reques ted. Her .aunt gave her enough money to buy material to make her a dress. "Now here is the ques tion. She said that in order to see a person in that form, you had to be bom with a veil over yOur face and that her and her father both were bom this way. "She was of sound mind and never sick, and she also included every little detail. Os, course.
