It is our duty to go to & build up the Zion of God on the Earth. we cannot do it by singing & Praying alone but it must take the bone & sinnew of the people. what will Zion do when it is built up, it will be beautiful & glorious, what we have done already is attracting the Attention of the world.
~ Brigham Young
President Young spoke 10 Minuts spoke of the organization of the Church. Read a Revelation that a Desolating sickness would cover the Land but the saints would stand in holy places & not be moved the wicked say the Lord delayeth his coming
