I preached in the afternoon & bore testimony to the discourse in the fore- noon & the fullness of the gospel & that Joseph & Brigham and others were true Prophets of God & that all the world who were fighting against the L D. Saints & their prophets were fighting against God and his kingdom & the Judgments of God awaited them and they had not the power to destroy the Kingdom of God for he had planted the kingdom on the Earth & he would maintain it if the wicked had power to kill the prophets they had not power to stop the work of God
