Woodruffs arrive in Boston, Massachusetts to begin presiding over gathering of Saints.

in the old Mormon Hall or Marshall Hall on third above
willow street I addressed them in the morning from the
words of Jesus to his deciples "that as it were in the days
of Noah & Lot so shall it be in the coming of the Son
of Man, [Matthew 24:37] [Luke 17:26] &c I had the spirit & power of God resting upon
me & I spoke of the signs of the times And warened them
to keep the commandments of God that they might escape
the Judgments of God. I addressed the Saints in the Afternoon
