"The true use of gold was for paving streets covering houses & makeing culinary dishes & when the saints shall have preached the gospel raised grain & built up cities enough the Lord will open up the way for a supply of gold to the perfect satisfaction of his people. They hadve laid the foundation for a perpetual fund for the purpose of gathering all the poor saints to Zion who cannot gather them selves untill all the poor ar gatherd from Council Bluffs, the United States and all the World
