Source passage

Source text · mention only

“Her father,” says Mr. Hudson Tuttle, “read in her presence a letter he had received from a friend in Leeds, speaking of the loss of his daughter, about whose fate he was very unhappy, as she had disappeared nearly a month before, and left no trace. Eliza went into the trance state, and cried out, ‘Rejoice! I have found the lost girl! She is happy in the angel world.’ She said the girl had fallen into the dark water where dyers washed their cloths; that her friends could not have found her had they sought her there, _but_ now the body had floated a few miles, and would be found in the River Aire. The body was found as described.
