Drugless healer P O Beach visits Henry Illinois
P O Beach, a drugless healer from Pearl Pike County Illinois, traveled to Henry at the request of George Hank to treat paralysis and other ailments. He claims to restore breathing, improve blood circulation, straighten a bent hand, aid bowels, and relieve rheumatism, with patients paying only what they gift if helped. He plans further treatments at his Pearl home and has assisted Will Bunyon, Thomas Shaw, and others in Wyoming, though state law prevents him from open practice.
