Original Toronto Star caption: Prayer vigil. Bearing placards and candles; 4;000 people converged on Nathan Phillips Square on Wednesday night to pray for Terry Fox and to honor the one-legged runner and other disabled Canadians. Civic officials and the Toronto Medelssohn Choir led the crowd in a tribute to Fox who ran halfway across Canada last summer to raise money for cancer research and is now fighting a losing battle with the disease.
