I was a young boy when I first heard of this (event). A Motor Stage (vehicle) was late on its return to Maple Falls (a small community) north of Deming Washington, and as the time began to worry some of the family of one of the occupants, one of the members said" let's ask the ouija board where the Stage is".of course just for something to occupy time while waiting. two of the family put their finger tips on the board and asked "where is the stage" the answer came as it spelled out "Sumas" It brought a chuckle from them all as Sumas was quite a few miles west of the stage route. About an hour later the stage rolled in and as the ones getting off they were explaining the reason for the delay. "A bridge had washed out before they got to Deming and they had to travel west to the bridge at Sumas to get back to the route.
