J. D. Page, who was previously injured by an axe, is recovering very rapidly. He attributes his quick recovery to the Lord and views it as extraordinary.
Fuller account of this event (the complete account as preserved in The Latter-day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 34, No. 42, 15 October 1872, p. 667):
Brother J. D. Page, of Mount Pleasant, who was recently severely injured by an axe, is recovering very rapidly. He attributes his quick recovery to the Lord, and views it as a manifestation of His power.
In Their Own Words
“A letter from J. D. P., the operator so badly injured with an axe lately at Mount Pleasant, to A. M. Musser, under the date of September 10th, states, among other things, that his health is very good and he is gaining very fast. He regards his recovery as extraordinary. — Millennial Star 34:42”
