THE MODERN MIRACLE.
■ There are people who consisI tentiy pooh-pooh the miraculous as i a. possibility, and others who are I willing to recognise it as belonging jto the time of Christ, but having )no place in modern times. Both ! these classes of unbelievers must i have experienced considt rable surj prise on reading the recent account ; of a modern pilgrimage to Lourdes I by the victim of a railway accident in France. This man, by the name i of Gargam, was so far on the high :r<»ad to death through seven* physical injuries that, the railway comi pany had decided to pay over heavy I damages, when a visit to the shrine
at Lourdes by Gargam restored the victim to health and saved the company its money. The account; ot the man s astonishing - recovery is given by the Melbourne “Age,” wherein it was stated that sixty doctors examined the man and dedared him to be absolutely cured of his injuries and freed of the condition of gangrene which was rapidly bringing death. His faith had healed him.
