The Day of Miracles Is
Not Over, According To i
t Case of J. G. Southern
WeJI Known Primitive Baptist Elder Miraculously
Cured Of Pellagra— Attributes His Restoration to
Prayer.
Elder Joel G. Southern a few weeks ago was pronounced
hopelessly ill of pellagra by some of the most eminent physicians
in North Carolina.
Monday last Elder Southern called at the Reporter office while
on his way home from filling some Sunday appointments in the
Northern section of the county. He appeared to be the picture
\ of health, and carried with him his accustomed air of cheerful
ness. In response to the Reporter's questions, Elder Southern
stated that he had entirely recovered from pellagra, with which
desperate disease he has recently been afflicted. He had been
examined by a number of physicians of this county and of Wins
ton-Salem and other places. The symptoms were unmistakable,
and Elder Southern's friends never expected to see him well
again. He was stricken with pellagra, the new fatal malady.
♦ But the preacher never once lost hope. After passing through
the most painful illness, lasting over a period of several months,
accompanied by the intense depression of mind incident to the
hopeless disease, he at last found himself well again. Elder
Southern attributes the almost entire restoration of his
health to the power of prayer. He never once lost
i faith, he says, in his ultimate recovery, constantly praying to
this end. while his friends also came in and offered up their peti
tions.
Elder Southern does not believe that either the days of miracles
or of answer to prayer are over, but is convinced that the Spirit of
God is today as all-powerful as in the days of the Apostles.
* Whatever causes may have intervened to bring Elder Southern
back to his usual health and buoyant spirits, his many friends are
certainly delighted to see the change. »

Estate Market Bullish. j |
Walnut Cove is enjoying a!
strong, healthy growth. Nearly j
every week marks the arrival of i
new citizens, or the establishing |
of a new enterprise. The latest j
is that of Mr. J. Wesley More
field, a prominent merchant of
Sandy Ridge Route 1, who has 1
bought two lots of Sheriff C. M.
Jones, upon one of which he will
erect a mercantile house and on
the other a dwelling. Mr. More
field has four daughters in
school at Walnut Cove, and it is
largely to get the benefit of the
excellent school advantages of j
Walnut Cove that he has decid-1
ed to move. It is learned that
Mr. More field will rent a por
tion of the J. S. Taylor house
(formerly the W. A. Lash resi
dence) until he can build. Mr.
Lester B. Morefield, who at pres
ent conducts a store on Camp

will move into the place to be
vacated by his father, J. Wesley i
Morefield, on Sandy Ridge.

Dodson has been finished and is 1
now open to the public. His

Cove Hotel, which Mr. Dodson
relinquishes, has been leased by
Mr. Levi Lackey, late of Mad
son, and its service to the public
will be continued. These, with
the Central Hotel, conducted by
Mrs. W. P. Landreth, give the
Cove excellent hotel facilities.

The machinery alone in this

will be one of the most importantJ
