Aged Woman Recovers Sight After 19 Years Blindness
Worcester resident Mrs Mathilda Mossette aged 93 regained sight after 19 years of total blindness. She lost vision in June 1905 following an unsuccessful eye operation and inflammation led to removal of the left eye. The right eye had been blind until the recent sudden restoration she attributes to prayer. She now praises the miracle and recalls first seeing her son and family. She also notes fear of losing sight again and initial fright at automobiles and electric cars.
