In 1892 Fealy had a vision of a life work in which he was told to "go heal the sick" and to seek through laws which would be revealed a plan in which all might know the "freedom from the bonds of matter and have Health Happiness and Abundance." He studied the hidden and latent forces of the inner self and became a successful healer. His success led to an "Initiation into Apostolic Powers" and as a bishop he was able to establish churches and commission others as ministers and healers. By 1902 he was actively traveling preaching and healing." from Encyclopedia Cm "Founded by the Unitarian minister Edward Byron Payne 1847–1923 and thirty of his followers near Santa Rosa California in October 1894 Altruria prospered only for a few months. Payne was born in Vermont and served as minister for Unitarian churches in New Hampshire Massachusetts and several other east coast locations. In 1892 due to deteriorating health Payne moved west and became the minister of First Unitarian Church in Berkeley California delivering sermons reflecting socialist principles and covering political events of his era. The last installment of William Dean Howells' popular work A Traveller from Altruria was published in the 1893 issue of Cosmopolitan. Several Altrurian groups subsequently emerged in the Bay Area and at one of these gatherings in 1894 a Berkeley-based Altrurian Club decided to change its focus from discussing social change to implementing social change through the establishment of a colony; Payne was a charter member. Several such societies were created in the San Francisco and Los Angeles areas." from Wikipedia; Trade PB; 289p. pages; Pictured 4/27/23 . 1925. The Comforter League of Light paperback
