the destroyer resting upon me in the fore part of the day. in the evening Phebe for the first time during her sickness
began to lay hold on faith for her recovery her faith was strong in God we laid hold on faith together repented
of all our sins & confessed them before God & covenanted to keep his commandments I had some oil that
was consecrated for my anointing while in kirtland I again consecrated it befor God for anointing the sick I
bowed myself down before the Lord & prayed with my companion & anointed her [with] oil in the name of the
Lord I laid my hands upon her in the name of JESUS CHRIST and rebuked the fever the destroyier
the deadly malidy that was praying upon hesr soystem & thank God we both obtained a great blessing in
so doing & according to her faith her fever left her & praised be the name of GOD for we will ever keep
his commandments & trust in him Praise the Lord O my soul for all of his wonderful acts
