Journal Entry

February 27, 1859 ~ Sunday

27th Sunday I attended the meeting at the Tabernacle
Wm. I. Appleby Preached a gospel & Historical serman. I
met with my Quorum. A. O. Smoot Prayed R Bentley was
Mouth. I met with the Quorum of the Twelve F. D. Richards
Prayed. O Hyde was pmouth we talked abut the spirits of men the
varius glories, & come to the conclusion that all things was right
with the Lord & that there was but few of the spirits of men who
were capable of receiving a celestial glory and the Telestial glory
was broad enough to catch evry thing that ought to have any kind
of salvation
