I received a letter from Elder Milton Holmes I forwarded him two pamphlets by Mail. I took the
parting hand with Mrs Woodruff & Father Carters family to go to visit fox Islands for the last time, for the
purpose of assisting as many of the Saints as are ready to prepare their teams waggons & teams to go to the
land of Zion. O my God prosper my way give me favor with the Saints enable a goodly number of them to go to
the land of Zion deliver me from the hands of my enemies bless my wife & the babe which thou has given us, while
I am absent enable me to return to again greet them in health I ask these blessings in the name of Jesus Christ Amen
