W. H. Bliss, rector of Trinity church, that during luncheon the child’s hearing had been miraculously restored. e A woman, paralyzed in a her limbs for years, was treated shortly before noon Monday. Her husband tele- phoned Dr. Bliss early Monday evening that she was able to move both hands and feet. eee A boy, the nephew of a man prominently known in Seattle, who had been blind since birth, was treated by the “healer.” Monday evening word was sent to Mr. Hickson that the boy’s eyes had been opened and that he could see. . A man of middle age, suffering from cancer on the lower jaw, returned Tuesday morning for a second treat- ment. Stopping at the church door, he said: “I believe this man is a disciple sent from God. His treatments have scarcely had time to effect many cures, as yet, but I believe in them. I believe, as he says, that faith in God will bring the cure.” . Another boy, 11 years old, whose parents discov- ered two years ago that he had never been able to see with one eye, read perfectly with that eye Mon- day pe ay after being treated. This was reported to Rev. 8. Morrison, rector of the Church of the | Be wig The parents are members of his church. Their namé is well known to all Seattle, he said. eS Several cases of paralysis were treated at the chancel rail in Trinity church Monday. Of these, it was re- ported, several were able to move their limbs slightly for the first time immediately after treatment.
