thirty years old, of Mt. Sterling, be-
lieves she was cured by faith Monday.
She had been suffering from rheuma-
tism for five years, using crutches in
walking, with her right arm partially
useless. The Saints preachers, who
are conducting a meeting in that
county, went to see her and spent
some time in prayer and song. Hav-
ing strong faith in her ultimate cure,
she threw away her medicine and
grasped the minister with her right
hand, shouting: praise God, | am
cured; healed by Him." She then
walked around the room without
crutches and says she feels nc pain.
Great crowds have fiocked to the
home to witness the alleged cure by
faith. Mrs. Elan had eaten little fol
weeks, but now her appetite has re
turned and she eats heartily.
