This morning before I was out of Bed, My Grand Son
Wilford Leslie Snow, son of Lorenzo & Phebe Snow, being two
years old this day, came to my bed side & laid his hands upon
my head & Gave me the following Blessing "O Lord Bless
Grand Pa, give unto him great wisdom, health, strength, & Peace,
comfort his heart, may he live long upon the Earth to do great
good, give him power over every enemy, and preserve him
from Every Evil & sin. Give him the desires of his heart
in all things in righteousness. May the spirit of God contin-
ually rest upon Grand Pa, to guide him in all things. may peace
abide upon his habitation, & salvation upon his family forever
I ask these Blessings in the Name of Jesus Christ Amen. As Wilford Leslie
is young in the Patriarchal office it is right to say he had the assistance of his Mother
