"While laboring in Keighly last winter, and going with tracts from house to house, I came to a lady standing outside by the door. She asked me if I had something good. I answered, Yes, at the same time giving her a tract entitled 'The Only Way to be Saved.' I then commenced to talk to her about the Gospel, and of its restoration with its gifts and blessings. She invited me into the house, where I found her two daughters, one of whom, a young lady of about seventeen years, was lying in bed, and had been home from her work two weeks. "The mother said to me, 'Mr., I want you to lay hands on my girl: I do not want to lose her.' "I told her that the signs were for those who believed, and explained more fully to her the Gospel and its blessings for those who lived up to its blessings. "She replied, 'Mr., I know you have the authority and if you will administer to my daughter, she will get better.' "After talking further to her and seeing that she was sincere, I turned to the daughter and asked her if she had faith and wished me to administer to her. "'Yes,' she answered. "I went back to my lodgings, got a bottle of consecrated oil and returned to the house. The mother and I knelt down by the bed and I offered a short prayer, after which I anointed the daughter with oil, and rebuked the disease. {247} "In four days from that time, the young lady went to her work, and has continued to do so." Elder C. L. Galbraith, another Latter-day Saint missionary, writing from South Shields, June 3, 1897, relates a case of healing by the power of the Lord: "Not long since I was in Sunderland attending our meetings which we hold every Sunday afternoon and evening. After the first meeting I walked to Ryhope, where I partook of a meal with a friend. On my return in company with some members of the Church we passed by an aged sister's home. After we had passed the house I said to those with me, 'I feel like I should have called in to see Sister Chalder, but we have not time.' "We continued on some distance when I again felt impressed more strongly than before to return. I turned to the brethren who were with me and said, 'We must go back.' "We turned and did so. On entering we found Sister Chalder lying in bed and very sick indeed; in fact those present thought her time had come, as she is far past the appointed lease of life. When she recognized us her countenance brightened and she endeavored to speak to us. Her voice was very weak, and we had to draw near to her in order to distinguish what she said. "'I am so glad you have come!' she repeated, 'I have been praying to God that you might come, that I might be healed.'
