<TITLE>03. Par 23-36</TITLE>L-23 I said, "What you're here for... Your husband is a short, heavy-set man. He wears a black mustache. Two weeks ago, you was at a doctor. Here is your name." I couldn't write, couldn't say it. I had to spell it. It was a Mohammedan name."
She said, "That's right."

L-24 And I said, "Then, and your husband waited in the hall. He was wearing a gray suit and a tan hat." I said, "The doctor was kind of a tall man, thin, wore great horn-shell glasses. He gave you a female examination, and found you had a cyst on the ovary."
She said, "That's the truth."
I said, "You accept Jesus as your Saviour?"
She said, "Jesus Christ be my Saviour."
Next was a little cross-eyed boy.

L-25   And they'd only just let the missionaries go, get one or two out of each tribe. You couldn't hold them, no way at all. So, they had hundreds and hundreds of the militia trying to hold them, and they couldn't do it.

L-26 And so then this little, cross-eyed boy, they set him up on the platform, about the distance of that.

L-27 And up on the platform, those great big Calla lilies. You sisters here, that like flowers! Some of those Calla lilies there are eighteen inches across; yellow, white, beautiful. And they had it. They're just wild. Had bouquets setting around.

L-28 And I was talking. They set the little boy up. The missionary set him up. And the little fellow was cross-eyed. He just had his dinner.

L-29   Sometimes their--their diets is very funny. He had... They take a little quill and pluck a cow's veins, in what they call a--a bucket. It's a little sack, sewed together skin, and let the--the blood, hot blood, run in there. Then milk a little milk in it, and churn it, it makes a--a delicious lolli-pop.
You wouldn't want one of them, would you, honey? No.

L-30 So that, but, he, that's what he had been eating. And his little eyes were crossed. I said, "Now, anybody can see, will know what's wrong with the child. His eyes is crossed. If I could help that baby," I said, "I'd certainly do it. But I--I can't help it, no more than anybody else." I said, "If a doctor could, why, if he wouldn't do it, then he'd be something severally out of the heart of the doctor, if he could help it." I said, "Don't think they'd have any way of doing at this time."

L-31 I said, "But, now, the Lord can reveal to me about the baby. And then, It said, 'The baby, his father and mother is a thin pair.'" That was... She was a Zulu, and they're usually heavy. I said, "This is them setting right out here now. Their name is such-and-such." And I said, then, "The baby was born with cross eyes. Cause, the mother... They come from a... They believe Christian, because on the inside of the little, thatch hut, there's a picture of Christ, hangs to the right-hand side of the wall."

L-32 And I said, "And the baby, as soon as the mother showed the baby to the father, it was cross-eyed." The father and mother stood up, to vindicate that was right. I looked back at the little baby, his eyes as straight mine.

L-33 So I said, "Now, you see, the Lord," I said, "I haven't been in ten feet of the baby, the baby is healed."
Just passed it on through. And I called for the next one.

L-34   And then when it did, I heard a commotion. Dr. Bosworth and Dr. Ern Baxter, managers of mine, in the meeting, they was fussing with somebody, and I... making such a commotion. This guy was trying to get on the platform, or trying to get up there. And there was several doctors, medical doctors setting there. So this medical doctor, he--he said, he was talking. He said, "I want to talk to him about that baby."
I turned around, I said, "What's the matter, doctor?"
Said, "How did you know I was a doctor?"

L-35 And I said, "You are a doctor. You're... You was raised up, in England. You're a British doctor." And told him where he was schooled.

L-36 He said, "Now, Mr. Branham, I can understand where mental telepathy could--could read my mind."
I said, "I'm not reading your mind, doctor."
