Johann Joseph Gassner
A noted "exorcist," born at Bludenz, in the Tyrol; while a Catholic priest at Klosterle he gained a wide celebrity by professing to "cast out devils" and to work cures on the sick by means simply of prayer; he was deposed as an impostor, but the bishop of Ratisbon, who believed in his honesty, bestowed upon him the cure of Bendorf (1727-1779).
