BAUER, MISS BARBARA

Letter, July 13, 192817

[Miss Bauer wrote, in a letter dated May 24, 1928: "My request to you is this: To resurrect my dear brother who recently passed away... I know you can accomplish it in a Master's way... I know you are endowed with these Divine Powers..."18 In another letter she offered to bear all costs of journey if bodily presence was essential.19]

Dear friend, 
I have your letter. I don't know how the story about miraculous powers possessed by me has got abroad. I can only tell you that I am but an ordinary mortal susceptible to the same weakness, influences and the rest as every other human being and that I possess no extraordinary powers.

Yours sincerely,

Miss Barbara Bauer
Big Spring, Texas
