Sept 1. we were Met by a committee from Jackson
County Missouri we Met the Mayor & committee
on the Temple Block and the Quire sang there but
it was so crouded we went into the Tabernacle
near by the Temple Block & we sang there The Mayor
had lost one Arm in the Armey but the one
arm left He kindly gave to me while I was
with Him One vary stricking incident was worthy
of record I went through Jackson County with Harry
Brown in 1834 on a Mission to the southern states at
that time we had to keep secreted so the people would
not know that we were in the county as our lives would
be sacrafized if they knew that two Mormon Mission-
aries were in the county. Now the Mayor of the city
of Independance comes & greets us with the warmest
reception. How Great the contrast we give God the praise
