Junod Miraculously Restored to Sanity After Laying on of Hands

Junod was afflicted by distress and the mistreatment of his wife and sisters. He came to Elder Curtis E. Bolton in a state of excitement and tears. Bolton and another Elder laid hands on him, and Junod was restored to a calm, sane state, rejoicing much, until later events led his family to confine him in an asylum.

Fuller account of this event (in the witness’s own words):

While I was over the matter, Junod came in rather excited, and complained of the treatment he underwent from his wife and two sisters, and burst into tears. After a little, the brother with me being an Elder, we laid hands on Junod, and I baptized him; he was sane, and rejoiced much, and when he left us he was and not even excited. I have since learned that his wife and sisters have had him put into an asylum, which is a common way here to get rid of those who are troublesome, or to get possession of their property.
