Brother Kimball said to Brother Brigham
you shall be blessed & all your House & not one of them
shall be lost & no man shall get Betwen me
& Brother Brigham & Brothe Richards & no
man or woman shall get between the Twelve
& Presidency if they do they will get pinched
& any man or woman that tries to get between
us will be darnemned they tried to prejudice Joseph
against us in his day & they will be damned

The Twelve are the best men that live and any
man that tries to put their feet upon their neck
will get the feet of the Twelve upon their neck
(Brother Brigham came in at this time) do as Br
Brigham tells you & all will be right & you will
not have sorrow follow my council & you will
not have sorrow. If my own family would take
my council & had faith in me I would never have
a doctor in my family but I have doctors here
that I have faith in but let me send for a doctor
& they have faith in him & not in me then what
for them am I. Brother Brigham said that is
true & worthy of note it is natural for a man to
be always borrowing trouble but we have trouble enough
without Borrowing. If you are not one you are not
mine saith the Lord [Doctrine and Covenants 38:27] but if you abide in me you will
bring forth fruit to the glory of God [John 15:5] when we
learn this lesson our sorrows will scease when we
get the cloak off we shall be in heaven In this
