Summary "Patience Worth: A Psychic Mystery" by Casper S. Yost is a narrative exploring psychic phenomena, written in the early 20th century. This work presents an intriguing account of paranormal communication through the use of a Ouija board, specifically highlighting the character of Patience Worth, an alleged spiritual entity who communicates in an archaic form of English, imparting wisdom, poetry, and tales. The story captivates readers with its exploration of the boundaries between the living and the supernatural. The opening of the narrative introduces two women, Mrs. John H. Curran and Mrs. Emily Grant Hutchings, who have begun to experiment with a Ouija board out of curiosity. On one fateful evening, they receive a profound and articulate introduction from Patience Worth, who claims to have once lived centuries ago. This event marks the beginning of a sustained and unique relationship with Patience, as the women tirelessly document her various communications, which include epigrams, poetry, and allegorical tales that reveal her striking personality and intellect. The initial interactions set a mysterious and compelling tone, suggesting a deep dive into the implications and wonders of spiritual communication. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
