The story was that u poor sufferer who |
had not been able to lie down In bed for |
six long years, given up TO die by all the |
Doctors, hnd been speedily cured 10y |

the circumstance, NJ was said, that the |
Vicar OF Llanryslyd was familiar with
the facts, and could vouch for the truth
OF the report.
