Journal Entry

November 13, 1844 ~ Wednesday

123th A hand pointing to the right Sister Foss & Sarah Elizabeth are both better
to outward appearance they both got together into
one bed & prayed and sung & shouted glory to God &c.
this no doubt was caused more by the weakness
of the system than by sound judgment; for such
religious exercises as are manifest at times at a
camp meeting to be exercised by persons in a low
state of fever are not beneficial eith[er] to soul or body
I sent a paper to Ilus & one to Freedom Moulton
stating that Sister Foss & Sarah Elizabeth was
better, but in the evening, Sarah Elizabeth was
taken wors & began to sink vary fast, they gave
her medicine but she was much distressed &
they thought mortification had taken place
