Archibald Geddes and His Wife Both Instantly Healed of Sickness After the Laying On of Hands at Clarkstone, Scotland (1848)

“Upon Thursday evening, September 28, while a few of the Saints in this branch were assembled in the capacity of a prayer-meeting, I was sent for to the house of Brother Archibald Geddes, residing in the village of Clarkstone. He asked me to attend to the ordinance appointed of God for the healing of the sick: he seemed to be labouring under an attack of the cholera, during which the following symptoms were manifest—violent vomiting, and severe cramp from the feet as far up as the thighs. Elder Andrew Henderson, having accompanied me from the prayer-meeting to brother Geddes’s house, engaged in prayer. I then administered the ordinance to him in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and laid hands upon him, when he immediately recovered so as to attend his work as usual upon Saturday. His wife, who is not a member of our community, was also sick and very unwell at the same time, and at her request we administered the ordinance to her, when she also immediately recovered by the power of God.”
