meeting all day Preached in the morning and
^[FIGURE]^ President Preached in the Afternoon. He read the

upon it He spoke of the various glories & the different characters
who would occupy them He said all children who died in childhood
would go to the and thereir Mothers if they do
not keep the celestial layw will not go whare there children
