Ladoga Girl Awakens From Trance Lasting Six Days.

Ladoga, Ind., June 9.—“ Where am I?” were the first words spoken by Miss Merrille Zimmerman, the high school girl, to her mother, when she came out of a trance yesterday, which had lasted since last 'Tuesday morning. The girl is still so weak that she can not leave her bed. “I feel all right now,” said Miss Zimmerman, “only I’ll have to begin just where I left off when I went to sleep, for I do not recall anything that has happened since I fell asleep Tuesday morning.” During the entire time she was in the trance Miss Zimmerman showed no animation, except when she turned over on her side. Her parents said they believe the attack was due entirely to overwork during the last part of the school term. People here are watching the final outcome of the case with interest.
