<TITLE>03. Par 12-16</TITLE>L-12 So there was an old Indian setting there. When he seen Billy coming, he looked at him, and got up and walked over, and my boy has quite a sense of humor, you know, so he said... Pecked him on the back and said--said, "What's the matter, chief?"
He said, "Me sick."
"All right." Said, "Chief, my daddy told me just to give it to people who are real sick. Are you real sick?"
He said, "Me sick." That was all he knowed. So Billy went on. Chief set down and watched him again, watched them prayer cards beginning to getting thinner and thinner, so he walked over and pecked him on the back again, and said... Boy, said, "What do you want, chief?"
Said, "Me sick."

L-13 He said, "I know," but said, "what--what's the matter with you, chief? Are you real sick? You got cancer or something that you..."
He said, "Me sick." That's all he could get out of him. So it went on a little farther, and he just had a few left. Chief caught him and turned him around and said, "Me sick."
And Billy said, "Say, take this prayer card and write on it, 'Me sick,' and take it up there and give it to the usher."
"Me sick." But that's--that's the Indian, you know. He--He's a very strange fellow, and that night when I got through speaking, I said, "Now, will you form..." We was on a church steps where they had a little church there. And I don't know what denomination it was, but it was just a little church out there. And the missionary was standing there. She couldn't speak the language. There's a woman interpreter.

L-14 So I noticed all of them, they... little fires begin to come up along in the desert. And I said, "Now, all that believes and wants to be prayed for, line up over here on my right, everybody that wants to be prayed for." Had plenty of room, they had the whole deserts to line them up in.
I said, "All that wants to be--wants to be prayed for, stand up over here on my right." Nobody at all got up. They just set there. Well, I thought, "Well, this is the first time I ever had that to happen." Nobody got up at all.
So I said, "Well now, that's strange." So then the next... I... the--the missionary went back in the church, and here she come out with some--some Indian women.
So I said, "Will this be the prayer line?"
She said, "Yes."

L-15 So the first woman, I was looking at her, talking to her through the interpreter, and I seen what was wrong with her, and I told her it was a venereal disease. I said, "That's not because you're immoral, but the way you have to live."
She turned and looked at me. She mumbled off something to the interpreter. The interpreter said to me, "She said, 'How'd you know that?'"
And I said, "Well, that's the gift of God." So she... That was right. I said, "Do you believe Christ will heal you of that?"
"Yes." I prayed for her. She went on.

L-16 Two or three passed by: one with glaucoma of the eye, and so forth, and after while there was a--a little girl come by and just about the size of this little girl that just got her sight the other night setting here, and so she had her head down and her little old hair just as course as bristles. And she wouldn't hold her head up. She just had her head down.
And I took a hold of her head; she just kept her head down. And I said, "What's wrong with her?" And--and I said, "She's deaf and dumb, isn't she?"
Said, "Yes."
And I said, "Wasn't that caused by a fever?"
She said, "Yes. Heap much fever made her no hear, no speak."
And I said, "Do you believe?" And the mother standing there. I said, "Do you believe that Christ will heal your child?"
