Wilford serves seventh term as member of Territorial Legislature.
16th I spent the day in the office. Elders Cumings & Blair came
in & we talked about the presidency & the Refermation & future
Events. Brother Cummings related a Dream that Presidency had a
few days since as follows.
{President Young dreamed that in} 2 {weeks from that date about the} 12th Dec {that he died and in} 2 {weeks President Kimball
died and the people was in the awfullest state of any people he ever saw. But I pray God it may not be fulfilled}
I feel strongly pressed in spirit that some great trials await this
people & many will not be able to stand but will fall away I pray
the Lord to preserve the presidency of this Church. I called upon President
Young a short time found him in his room in quite good spirits. I spent
most of the evening in the office in company with Bishop Hunter who
conversed upon a great variety of subjects I went to bed feelings
unwell I dreamed of being among snakes & was quite worried I was
called up in the night to go & administer to R Ballantyne who was
quite sick but being poorly myself I did not go untill morning
