the End.
GREENFIELD, Mass, Aug. 17.-Joseph
Fidel, the sixteen year old French Canadian
boy who claims to have been cured at the
shrine of st. Anne De Beaupre near Quebec,
has had his trouble for years, it being at
times impossible for him to walk without
the aid of crutches. His blood has been so
full of scrofulous humor that there has been
seventeen cunning sores on his body at one
time. Money TO send him to the shrine was
subscribed and ten days ago he started. He
entered the church with $50 others. With
the others he was permitted TO touch the
sacred relics Then prayer for nearly five
hours followed. The boy is bright and in
telligent and he tells the story graphically.
Il had faith should be cured Suddenly
felt peculiar sensations all over --e.
stood up AMI threw up my arms. Ny
crutches fell from them; walked and cried
and laughed, and felt that my prayers were
answered. The priest asked me il / would
take home my crutches, and I told him / had
no use for them The clothes, too, which
were around my body dropped off. l came
home to my parents cured"
1t is only fair to say that the boy walked
miles without crutches, and his sores are
healed. His pulse, however, beats 140, when
it should be only eighty or ninety. Every
one hopes the young man is cured, but, of
course, many believe he is laboring under
temporary excitement
