YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN MORE CAREFUL FOR WHAT YOU WISHED FOR. CONVENT OF THE THREE SISTERS. A 23 day exorcism here finally freeded Emma Schmidt of the demon that had terrorized her for 26 years. Emma spoke and understood languages which she had never ben taught, blasphemmed when religious relics were brought near her, levitated to the ceiling in front of witnesses, was able to detect and reject blessed food, and foamed at the mouth. When her doctors gave up on her gave up on her, her parents appealed to the Ctholic Church for a formal rite of exorcism. These rites too place in September 1928 and were conducted by Father Theophilus Riesinger, a Capuchin monk and experienced exorcist. The exhausting ritual required the attendance of 12 nuns, who weree kept busy removing buckets of foul smelling excrement and vomit. Although Emma hardly ate, she sspewed forth a greenish vomit as often as 30 times a day during the exorcism. Many strange voices and the howling of a variety of animals seemed to originate from her chest, and a strange pea-size lump moved all over her body just under the skin. Her body was completely distorted, swollen so badly that the nuns feared she would burst. Emma's head swelled and turned red, her eyes bulged from their sockets, and her gray lips protruded to twice their normal size. Sometimes she seemed to float above the bed; other times her weight became so great that it bent the bed's iron frame. Curious people from miles around lined outside the brick convent building to hear the horrible sounds coming from the frail woman's body. Finally, on September 23, 1928, Father Riesinger expelled the last of several demons who inhabitated the body of Emma Schmidt. She cried"My Jesus Mercy" and slept soundly for the first time in 26 years. The nauseating odor in the room immediately dissipated. The entire event was documented and passed on to the Vatican for review.
