Tule Witch — Jane Toombs

SHE HAD THE POWER

Witchcraft and the Devil were part of her family heritage a heritage from which she could not escape!

Bebe opened her purse and took out the tiny doll wrapped in blue silk. Her grandmother made this doll and all the others like it before she died. As Bebe unwrapped the tiny image, she felt the greasy wax on her fingers. She lowered her head and intoned the chant:

"GREAT MOTHER GIVE ME POWER LET THE DARKNESS NOT DESCEND GIVE ME POWER KEEP MY MIND FREE GIVE ME POWER GREAT MOTHER!"
