LIFE OF THE HEALER
Frincls Schlatter as His Long Island
Neighbors Sa% Him
FIREMAN ON A FISHING STEAMER
Used to Study Much—“A Little Queen” —
Handkerchiefs Sent His Old Friends
Haven’t Worked Cures.
Francis Schlatter, the healer, is well
known in Jamesport, L. I. The resi
dents now talk of little else save their
townsman. They say he is rather a good
fellow, but a little queer, and seem
amused at the story of the shoemaker’s
cures. The village is much excited over
the Denver healer.
At Jamesport some interesting facts
were learned by a reporter who visited
the village. Whatever may be true of
the cures of the healer in the west, his
prescriptions do not work on his James
port friends, who have communicated
with Schlatter in Denver. The reporter
interviewed a number of people, and on
the promise of their names being with
held was told how they had received
handkerchiefs and other articles from
Schlatter with directions howto become
new in health and body. The good folks
tried his cures with all the faith imagi
nable, but their ailments did not disap
pear.
Some of Schlatter’s friends say he is
“off,” while many residents say he nev
er was quite right in his head. He nev
er showed any particular preference as
regards religious faith. He was brought
up a Catholic, so he told his friends.
He had been known to walk to the
Catholic church at Riverhead, a dis
tance of six miles. He occasionally went
to the village churches, Congregational
and Methodist, but Schlatter was not a
regular churchgoer. He went to James
port in 1890 with William Ryan, elder
son of Thomas Ryan. Ryan was an en
gineer and Schlatter had been employed
as his fireman on a fishing steamer.
Schlatter boarded with the Ryan fam
ily. He went fishing for two seasons.
Then he tired of the work and settled
himself at his trade. He hired half of
the house of Aunt Sally Corwins and
began makiqg shoes. He kept house for
himself then. He was well up in his
trade, and acted as finisher of fine hand
made shoes, the parts of which were
sent him from New York. Everybody
agrees that Schlatter was the finest shoe
maker they ever saw, and he made good
wages.
Schlatter while nt Jamesport is de
scribed as a tall, robust fellow of dark
complexion. He did not wear whiskers,
but had a becoming black mustache.
ue was apparently between 35 and 40
years of age. He went to Long Island
from New York city, and little of his
family record is known.
Daniel A. Young, justice of the peace
at South Jamesport, says Schlatter was
a trifle insane, but always firm in his
convictions. Mr. Young says that
Schlatter was always a great Republic
an until 1892, when he suddenly chang
ed and became a Socialist He believed
that the Socialist Labor party would
win that year. During the latter part
of his stay Schlatter told his friends of
his strange dreams, when beautiful im
ages appeared before his eyes.
Schlatter, when he went to James
port, had some money. His hobby for a
long time was silver mines and the
west, where he said he intended to
make his future home. At the Ryan
homestead they spoke well of the heal
er. He was a great student. Every
night until a late hour the light in his
room was burning and Schlatter sat
there studying something.
Schlatter boarded for a year with
Mrs. S. Bartlett. Mrs. Bartlett says he
was an excellent boarder. Her son Den
is says he seldom if ever went out of
the house of an evening. He noticed
nothing strange about Schlatter, he said.
Schlatter invested his money in specu
lating in a western silver mine com
pany. He went away from Jamesport
in 1893 to take charge of his mining
stock and to make his fortune, as he
said. These hopes were blasted when
Schlatter reached New Mexico, and tin.
Jamesport people believe that it was
this great disappointment that affected
his mind and made him the figure he is
today.—Brooklyn Eagle.
