came to him & asked him if he would not
go out into the country some two miles & heal
a pair of Twinn Children about 3 months old both
of which were vary sick. He said I cannot go but
I will send a man, who will do just as well. He
Turned The prophet turned to me & said you go
with this man & teach him & his houshold the principles
of faith in Christ then lay your hands upon
the Children & heal them in the name of the Lord
At the same time handing me a silk bandanna
red hankerchief & said wipe their face with that
Handkerchief & they shall get well ^and as long as you will keep^ then the prophet returned
^this Handkerchiaf it shall ever remain as a league between you & me^ home & I went & done as I was comma[nded] & the
