A notable miracle was wrought by faith & the power of God in the person of Sister Mary Pitt at Dymok She had been confined 6 years to her bed, with the spine which mostly deprived her of the use of her feet & ancles. & had not walked for 11 years ownly with the use of crutches. Elders Young Richards & Woodruff lade hands upon her & rebuked her infi- rmity & her ancle bones received strength & she now walks without the aid of crutch or staff
