Journal Entry

29 I had a pleasant walk with Sister Eunice upon the canal. We walked to Mr Simeon Heararts & had an inter
view with Cousin AchghhAchsah Woodruff I made some exhertions to obtain the Hall to preach in but
the people fearing their foundation would fall because of light & truth refused to give me the privilege
But O Babylon thou canst not break the scriptures nor stop the work of God for I say in the name
of the LORD the standard of truth shall be set up in Farmington & tho honest in heart will come to
it for light & truth is mighty & must prevail & none can stay the hand of God & wo be unto the gentiles
