April 87th Conference opened at 10 oclock prayer
by Lorenzo Snow H. C. Kimball made some remarks
He said that what President Young had presented
to the people to carry out was ownly what we had
in our Houses for years all have to be perchased
even George Watt I want all I have to be secure in
the kingdom of God. If the Presidency & Twelve
enter into this order they will swollow up the whole
Church in a little time & also the whole world as Joseph
did in Egypt. The Plurality of wives was esstablished
& many of you have fought it & you may fight it untill
you go into your graves & it will still be the work
of God & will continue to be to all Eternity
President Young followed upon the subject of consecr-
ation & tithing & his remarks will be published hereafter
