  Niels Andersen Mormon missionaries from Utah were holding religious meetings in the neighborhood and there was considerable opposition to this new American religion among the local towns people. Niels and some of his young friends who had heard about these Mormons and some false rumors about them, decided to attend one of their meetings and cause a fuss so as to break up the meeting. They learned when and where the next meeting was to be held and decided to attend and carry out their plan. They waited around outside the hall until the last minute and then entered the building and took seats at the very rear of the hall and close to the door. Being somewhat uneasy about their intentions they wanted to be able to get away quick if it became necessary. It was customary in these meetings to kneel down by the seats when the prayers were said. When the opening prayer was said everyone in the hall got on their knees by their seat. Niels, feeling rather uneasy, only bent one knee, thinking that in this position he could get away faster if it became necessary. When the prayer was over and he went to arise to his feet to take his seat again, the knee that he had not knelt on snapped and went stiff, causing him to limp. The meeting progressed and Niels and his companions became so interested in the message of the missionaries that they forgot to break up the meeting. From this time on Niels would slip away and attend all the Mormon meetings he could and his knee remained stiff and bothered him until on August 10, 1856 when he was baptized in the ocean. As he came up out of the water of baptism his knee snapped and it was no longer stiff.
