28^th Mrs Woodruff was sick this morning
I went to the mill for my sheeting but did not
get it. I attended meeting in the evening with
Elder Young on the flat we had the house full
and a good time the following are some of the
items of doctrin that Elder Young presented
[FIGURE] Be subject to the powers that be. Our sufferings
are that we may learn by experiance the prin-
ciple of contrast between good and evil. in order to
obtain Power never suffer anger to find a seat in
your breast ~~all~~ never get angry at all treat all
mildly, govern yourself your passions & it will
give you power. when the Temple is done I
expect we shall be baptized, washed anointed,
ordained, & offer up the keys & signs of the priesthood
for our dead that they may have a full salvation
& we shall be asviors [saviors] on mount Zion according
to the scriptures
