I retired to rest at night or sought for it but found it not for I was much troubled in spirit, about sever[al] things I do not recieve that union & kind treatment from my councellors that I ought to recieve at there. they do not consider my place & standing & sustain me in it in the way they ought, & are not united with me with that union that belongs to the Law of the Celestial kingdom this grieves me in spirit for the judgme- nts are about to be poured out upon the Nations and we ought to be prepared & have no divisions among us I arose at midnight & called upon the Lord by supplica- tion according to the Holy Priesthood And the Lord manifested somethings unto me 4
