Journal Entry

October 13, 1844 ~ Sunday

13th Sunday I met a large congregation of Saints
at the [blank] Hall opposite the Boylston Hall I had
the spirit & power of God rest upon me & I had
a good time. I dined with Br Dam & called
upon Sister Voce, she gave me $10 & other Sisters $5
to help me on my mission. I walked to meeting with
Sister Cobb, who inquired about Nauvoo. I
had an interesting meeting in the afternoon
I enjoyed much of the spirit of God, the Audience
was still & gave good attention A collection was taken
up to assist me on my mission And about $50
dollars in all was taken including about $15 at
Sister Voce. I attended the discussion in the [e]vening
at Marlboro Chapel between Adams & Bachellon

spent the night at Br Phelps Sister Phelps had
a fine daughter born during the night
