Discourse 1883-09-30
Apostele Woodruff made remarks as follows. Said that while he was in Arizona Gen. Sherman [rewoh] was there; remarked that it was a shame for the govern- ment to charge the Mormans any thing for the land. But the time will come when we will see the blessings and wisdom displayed in sending that that colony. As I have often said, it seemed almost impossible toofor mortal man to live in these valleys when we first come here. But we shall soon understand why God wants these places setted. The Lord re- quires many things of us that has not been required of others generations. The Lord expects us to work with him in the redemption of his Kingdom. The time will come when we will be required to practice what we teach. Important events are about to transpire in Zion.
