Spirit Directed Cure Disputed Breast Cancer Case
Mary Rowland of Windsor Arcade recounts a remarkable spiritualist treatment that claimed to cure her breast cancer after a physician urged surgical removal.

The tale links to James Ky alop of the American Society for Psychical Research and Dr Shirley, a spirit guide via Rev Mr Currie.
