Autobiography 1883 Tullidge's Quarterly Magazine Notes 2
Sunday was the and Parley
P. Pratt delivered to the assembly his farewell address previous
to his leaving upon his mission to ^South America.^
The Sunday following Jedediah M. Grant
spoke well on prayer faith industry and other matters and
was followed by President Kimball
During the intermission President Young
Kimball and the Twelve called upon Brother Richards, and his sister
Rhoda lay at the point of death. We administered unto her
and President Young said she should live and not die at this
time.
In the afternoon President Brigham Young
addressed the congregation upon the subject of building the
Temple Tithing & labour on the public works. He said
if every man was willing to do what was right there would
be no nead of tithing. He would not be responsible
personally for the labour of every man on the public works
If the people paid their tithing the workmen would
get their pay. If we build Temples public
works or fit out missionaries to go abroad or feed the
poor it had to be by the tithing of the people
He also spoke to^of^ the merchants and
said that if they did not get their pay from those whom
they trust they were not to turn round up the Presidency
and Church for it.
Last Session
