220th we walked to Wind Point & Elders Young Richards
& myself walked onto the top of the part of Malvern Hill call
ed Herefordshire B[e]acon here we united in prayer & he[l]d
a council & unitedly felt that it was the will of God that
Elder Young should go immediately to Manchester to
assist in Publishing a collection of Hymns of 3000 copies &
also to immediately print & finish 3000 copies of the
Book of Mormon for we had procured £300 three hundred
pounds of lawful currency for this purpose, we feel
anxios to soon circulate the knowledge of the Book of Mormon
to all foreign nations & as this is the first commencment
of it I pray God to Bless the effort & make it a benefit to man.

hand with Elder Brigham Young who started for Manchester we
Elder Richards & myself tarried & preached at Wind Point
