obituary West Australian 16 Nov 1933
MR. J. M. HICKSON DEAD A FAMOUS FAITH-HEALER. Mission in Perth Recalled. LONDON, Nov. 14— Mr. James Moore Hickson, the world-famous faith-healer, died to-day.In the course of a world tour, the late Mr. Hickson visited Western Australia in August, 1923, and conducted faith-healing missions in Perth and country centres. Referring to his Perth visit, a leading Church of England official said yesterday that a strange thing happened, in that, for a time, a subject of religious importance occupied the public mind and attention. Wherever people met the one absorbing topic of conversation was the Hickson mission. Whatever may have been the opinion before the mission, when once it began there was no doubt that it had taken hold of the popular imagination, the dense crowds which gathered round St. George's Cathedral testifying to the interest aroused. The scene within the Cathedral, he pro ceeded, was one to cause sadness at first. The lame, the halt, and the blind were led to their places. The paralysed were helped or carried in. There were to be seen the deaf, the mentally deficient, epileptics and people suffering from all manner of disease. It was cheering to feel that although the British Medical Association had refused to have any connection with the mission, the nurses responded to the call for assistance. The services were simple. A hymn and a few prayers were followed by an address by Mr. Hickson, who then laid his hands upon those who were unable to walk, and were in the chancel and in front of the nave. Following him came the Archbishop of Perth, who gave the blessing of the Church to those who had received ministration. Then, for nearly two hours, there was a stream of people who could walk making their way to the altar for ministration. Each day it was the same, - nearly 4,000 people receiving the laying-on of hands during the four days of the mission. The physical results of the mission, he continued, seemed about the last thing that entered the minds of those who assisted. It was, in fact, impossible to tabulate the physical advantages received, but that they were numerous was apparent from the thanksgiving service held in the Cathedral some days after the mission, when testimonies were received from the lame who had been made to walk, the blind who were able to see, and the deaf who had been cured and from people who reported improvement in organic disease. In writing, testimonies to improvement came from 300 people and many more testified verbally. All the good done at the mission was not to the body, however. Many of those ministered to expressed, thankfulness for spiritual benefits received. Nurses, intercessors' and stewards joined in that thankfulness, for the presence of God became a reality to many of them. Mr. Hickson himself was absolutely genuine and sincere. In ordinary life be was just a simple straightforward Christian gentleman who believed and tried to live out his belief that God had given him a special gift and that that gift was to be used to revive the gift of healing through the prayer of faith in the Church. He had wonderful tact, sympathy and insight in dealing with individuals and long experience gave him a wonderful knowledge of human illnesses. As he ministered to the patients he seemed to realise Christ's presence and in his prayers spoke of Christ as of a very dear friend who, though unseen, could do all things. His directness was amazing, his capacity for work astonishing, and his addresses and explanations simple and not beyond the understanding of any. He pointed his patients away from himself to Christ as the real healer and stressed the fact that the mission of Jesus was neither to men's souls nor to their bodies alone but to give full redemption to the whole of man's nature. |
