May 12th
I spent the fore part of the day in visiting different parts of the city. I saw many curiosities and
vanities from different parts of the world. I visited south Boston in the afternoon & spent
a part of the day in writing. We again met the sisters of the Church at the house of Sister Vose
in Myrtle street No 9 to speak unto them the words of life we had an interesting time & felt refreshed
by the spirit of God. I then returned & spent the night with Elder Ball. distance of the day 6 miles
