SAYS SHE WILL LIVE
AND DIE AMONG LEPERS.
Woman Who Declares That b Was
Healed by Prayer Will Devote

REPUBLIC

.cf bLlt sfENlAL
Philadelphia. Jan. Miss leila L.
McAuiey OF oil City has sailed for Bombay
TO engage in missionary work among the
lepers. Not Only 10 tho circumstance that
a cultivated young woman should leave
home and friends on such a mission I'M
usual, but so. too. IS the reason assigned
for it.
Miss McAuley was as active as most
children until s years Of age. She then
began to be troubled with a weakness
which suggested curvature of the spinal
column. Competent medical skill was ems
plcyed. and. for a time. no serious de-
velopments took place.
High School. however. she suffered so much
pain that she was advised to give up study
which she did al the end of the first year.
But the circumstances OF the family were
such that she felt she must do something
and she. therefore. took up music teach
ing. in which she was remarkably success
At this she continued, despite much suf-
fering, until 1899, when, as the result Of a
consultation of eminent specialists. 1t was
decided that she had double curvature Of
the spine, accompanied by partial psraly-
sis.
Plaster-of-paris jackets were recon-
mended. and no less than twenty-ore were
made for her within a period of eight years.
The long months between May, 1890.
and October. 1896. she grew gradually
burg ard Oh City. She found herself at
last in the P%ittsburg Home for Incurables-
And yet. through II all. MISS McAuieV-
held firmly to the belief that she would vet
recover.
She was a devout Christian and gradually
grasped the thought that she might be
healed in answer 10 prayer. So firmly did
she become fixed in this that she resolved to
leave. the home and take up her residence
at an establishment maintained by a num-
Der of faith healers"
When she announced her purpose she. was
SO weak that it was doubtful IL she could
live through the act of removal. For a full
year she had not been able to sit up in bed.
The removal was made. however.
Two days later a company of believers,
headed: by Miss Emma Kerr, now a mis-
sionary in India, were engaged in prayer
for her healing. when suddenly she sat up
in bed and shouted in a loud tone that she
was well.
She declared. and still asserts, that the
sensation experienced was like an electric
shock-sharp. clear. unmistakable.
All pain left her, and she had no use for
pillows. holsters or headrest. On the next
day but one she sat up in a chair without
assistance. ana on the following day the
plaster jacket was taken off.
May s she was able TO walk about the
building and within a week could walk on
the streets.
For a time she studied ut a missionary
institute, ard afterward engaged in prac-
teal missionary work in Pittsburg and else
where.
