Swain, Marcia M. (1819-1900)
Voice medium of a rescue circle in Buffalo from 1875 to 1900 under the direction of Leander Fisher, a music teacher and medium. Daniel E. Bailey, a wealthy man, took interest in the work and at his death made provision for the support of Swain for the rest of her life. She was never a public medium and did not give séances for money. The activity of the rescue circle was largely devoted to making the dead realize their true condition.
