 Bep Hermans was a Dutch au pair who came to work for [[Andrija Puharich]] in 1956, taking care of his three young children after his wife, Jinny, was sent for psychiatric treatment. Hermans later became Puharich's wife[^1].
 
 She arrived at the Warrenton Estate, the home of the [[Round Table Foundation]], in late March 1956. Hermans observed the dynamics within the foundation, including the relationship between Puharich and [[Peter Hurkos]]. She recalled that Hurkos's presence gave [[Harry Stump]] a confidence he had not had before, and that despite their conflicting natures, Peter and Harry "got along famously and forged a great telepathic team"[^1]. Hermans also witnessed Hurkos's psychometric talents, noting that he could provide detailed information about a person by touching an object belonging to them[^1].
