Doctors said he did not have long to live, so he took what he thought would be his final trip to see his parents.  His mother nurtured his health back to a point where he could get around, and he claimed to have been miraculously healed at a religious meeting in Fitzgerald.  According to ''Joybringer Bosworth'', after his healing Bosworth became an active member of the community in Fitzgerald, buying then operating a barber shop for some time, working assistant postmaster for over a year (less than two years), then he was elected as City Clerk (a position he held for two years).  In Fitzgerald he married at the age of 23 (his wife was the daughter of another Civil War veteran), and right after he was married he ran afoul of local politics by supporting someone else who was running on a prohibition platform, resulting in his not being re-elected as City Clerk at an election held shortly after his marriage.  After this he became a bookkeeper, then a teller, at the new bank in the city, then worked for a mercantile company owned by the bank.  In Fitzgerald, Bosworth had begun and directed a band, and had gained the respect of the band members to the extent that they tried to apply Bosworth's values to their lives.<ref name="FredFrancisBosworth"/><ref name="LifeStory"/>
