Sister Morrison was seized with the same cholera symptoms as James Lee. James Lee administered the ordinance morning and night, and she was healed.
In Their Own Words
“On the 2nd of December, I was seized with the cholera, and suffered much pain. I sent for Elder James Lee, who came and administered to me, and I was immediately relieved. On Sunday, the 10th of December, sister Morrison was seized with the same complaint, whereupon I was called to attend her. I administered the ordinance morning and night, and she was also healed. We feel to rejoice in the goodness of God, and in the power of the priesthood, which is so manifest in these last days.”
