Two Minds in One Body A Real Life Dr Jekyll Case
Reverend Hanna of Connecticut experienced a two month dual personality after a fall in which a mature clergyman's mind remained while a new adult body and infant-like awareness formed. He learned to walk, speak, read, write, and play music in the secondary mind, later regaining his original identity and memories while preserving both lives in a fused, healthier state.

Shaw the Irish wit and the tireless bicycle man
Arnold Daly’s successes in Candia and You Never Can Tell have sparked wide talk about George Bernard Shaw. The Dublin born dramatist notes his family’s respectability and snobbery, recalls self education through music and art, and recounts stage nerves turning into bold wit. He explains his method of seriousness under levity and cites incidents from London rehearsals and Wilde’s remark on his popularity. Shaw, a vegetarian, jokes about theater and recalls Daly’s praise while Mrs Shaw eyes an American trip, liking travel but preferring the underground railroad. He is pictured with a long red beard, bicycle gear, and a distinctive look on urban London streets.

Wae yet-yo-to Sun Priest Sends Message From Fire
Lawtons Station NY March 1 Special Correspondence The Seneca Indiana of Western New York celebrate a midwinter festival in the long house near Lawton Station. The ancient Wae yet you to prayer to He Who Made Us was led by Chief Ga-ni-yas of the Wolf clan, voiced as the sacred white dog faded from history. Emotions ran high as elders recalled old covenants with the Great Spirit, and tobacco smoke carried pleas to heaven while the community gathered around the altar and a bare hearth.
