An unnamed woman in Scotland, who had been opposed to the Church, fell sick. She was administered to by the Elders and promised that if she were raised up, she would cease her opposition. She subsequently recovered and was prepared for baptism.
In Their Own Words
“Since my return the brethren have written me regarding several baptisms that are to occur in Scotland, among which is the case of a lady who was sick and had been blessed under the hands of the Elders. I heard her say that she had been opposed to the work, but if the Lord would raise her up she would cease fighting against it. She is well now and ready for baptism. — Millennial Star 61:36”
