Behold and lo [FIGURE] I was in a dream. I was in council
with the Martered Prophet & Patriarch & the
quorum of the Twelve Apostles in aAmerica. I thought
we had all got to be ordained for some
purpose. I was called upon by Br Young & another
person to assist in administering the ordinances

came in & was objected to by Hiram Smith
I awoke & again fell asleep & dreamed of being
in council with the Twelve & others I made
an address to them. John E Page arose to
address the meeting but was stoped by
some female & was followed by Elder
Wiliard Snow. I have recorded this dre[a]m

I have on ship board for I am nearly all
