    3. Back in the early 30's my Mother took me with her to visit a Westmoreland cousin in Demorest, Ga. The cousin lived alone in a small house away from the main part of town. She was part Indian, Cherokee I think. She was known as a seer, a psychic, a fortune teller and the 'Wise Woman.' We had many folks visiting us at the big house and often some items would be missing after a visit. Money, jewelry, books, silver pieces, etc. She asked the woman for help. She told my mother that a certain person was helping himself to whatever appealed to him at the time of his visit. . She gave his name, where he lived and where he had put the items. My mother and Dad went to his home and got back everything but the money. Some of the items hadn't been on the list of what was nissing but he brough them out. He never came to our house again. regards, Belle

    3. How interesting, glad the thieve was caught. My mother used to say that her some of her vitamins, make-up and other pills would be missing when a certain relative visited, never the entire bottle, just some of it. Of course, we could never prove or even accuse the person.
