Brockton Newsdealer Claims Second Sight Healed Crippled Foot
Henry P. Caswell of Centreville, a Brockton newsdealer, says a vision in August led to the sudden ability to walk without crutches after twenty years of paralysis from a broken ankle. He says doctors could not help and that a mysterious old man urged him to throw away his crutches. Caswell reports ongoing sight-like impressions and details his life, family, and store residence at 615 South Main Street.
