GIRL AWAKES FROM TRANCE.
Sufferer from Cnf-Topsy In n Pennsylvnnin Hospital Regains Use , r ; of H«»r LimliM. • v
Anna Wampler, a patient at the Adams county hospital, Gettysburg, Pa., who for two months did not move a muscle, early the other morning astonished the attendants by suddenly leaping from her bed and starting to walk around her room. She went to her trunk in a corner of the room, opened it, and arranged her clothes in an orderly manner. She paid no attention to the nurses, and apparently was not surprised at awakening in a strange room.
The girl has been in a cataleptic state, lying in bed with her eyes open, but apparently oblivious to her surroundings. While walking around the young woman spoke no word, and it is evident that her mind remains a blank. Dr. Dickson, the attending physician, on being asked concerning the outcome of the case, said: "I was much surprised at the suddenness with which Miss Wampler regained the use of her limbs, and there is now hope that she will com-; pletely recover." y : ._
