Excerpt from The Miracle Man of Montreal
At the sincere and repeated requests of many friends and strangers, who having read an article on "The Miracle Man of Montreal," in Maclean's Magazine, and who seek additional knowledge of Brother Andre and his wonderful works, this brochure is published.
Whether the reader believes or disbelieves in present day miracles and the unseen power of the "Miracle Man," is a matter of little consequence. But it should be stated that, while not of the religious faith of my old friend, I have seen some of the miracles chronicled, and have gathered other data from persons whose credibility can not be questioned.
It should also be mentioned that these writings are not in any way inspired by the Roman Catholic Church, and that responsibility for their absolute truthfulness and authenticity is assumed by myself.
