March 1, 1891. This is my birth Day and the Birth
day of my wife Emma I arose in the morning quite
unwell But as I had Been absent from meeting through
Most of the winter I concluded to go to the Conference
so I went to the Tabernacle But my Distress increased
upon me to such an Extent that I was oblieged to leave
Brother Abram Cannon left with me He walked
with me to the Gardo I took some composition But
my suffering was great it resembled the Billious Cholic
I got a Buggy & Brother Cannon Drove me home and
Administered to me my pain was in my stomach, &
Bowels. Moses Thatcher Bishop Preston & C Wilken
called upon me & administered to me Emma & Sister Ship
kept my stomach & Bowels covered with hot cloths rung out
of Hot water & terpentine untill midnight before my pain sceased
I did not know but I would be called to die upon my Birth Day
