Remarkable case of natural ventriloquism in a boy

An Orangeburg doctor recounts a one year old boy whose stomach voices startled a community. The sounds, described as cock crowing and dog barking, claimed to foretell events and prompted public interest, with doctors noting it as nonconscious ventriloquism and locals treating it as possession. The case raised questions about superstition vs science as physicians tested the boy's control and the voice’s independence from his will. Lizzie and Verdinand Schiess of St Louis are noted for a separate long running marital saga, including repeated separations and reconciliations culminating in divorce proceedings.
