In 1834, Martin Harris joined Zion's Camp, the march to Missouri organized by Joseph Smith to redeem the Saints who had been driven from their lands. During the journey, the camp was struck with a severe cholera outbreak that killed a number of participants.
His son, Martin Harris Jr., recorded in his death notice that his father 'went up to Missouri in company with the Prophet Joseph Smith and others at the time when they were afflicted with the cholera and was one of those who were afflicted but was healed instantly by the power of God.'
He survived while others in the camp did not, healed through the power of God in an instant.
