I was called out of D. about eighty miles to see a sick gentleman. There was another gentleman in the place who had been kicked by a horse on the upper part of the thigh, and had lain on his back six days, unable to move his leg, which had to be lifted by some one else very carefully, and with pain in belief. The physicians had his leg bandaged, and said it would be quite a time before he would be able to walk even on crutches. He wanted to know if I thought that I could do him any good. I told him that I had no reason to doubt it. He said: "Then give me a treatment." This was at night. After the treatment, I said to him: " I want you to get up and stand on your feet." He did so. " Now," I said, " I want you to walk across the room," and he did so without limping. Of course this astonished him very much, and his physician could hardly believe it to be true. Next morning he rose and dressed himself, feeling quite well.
