and we shall send more here. I do not think there
ever was a people on the Earth who done as much as
we have in 40 years. I[t] was the opinion of the Prophet Joseph
that the City of Enoch was in the gulf of Mexico, And
that Adam offered his sacrafice & Bui[l]t his first altar
in Adam, Ondi, Ahman, & the stones of his Altar are
there now to be seen The City of Enoch was taken up
but the City of Zion which we shall build will remain
& not be taken away as his city was [Moses 7:69] Noah was 120 years
in building an Ark [Genesis 6:3] we have Not Been 40 years yet in
building up Zion in our day & the Kingdom of God on
the Earth. I have reflected a great deal upon this subject
I have labored to know how to build up the kingdom of God
upon the Earth. If I was to tell you what your duty
is in this place it would be go into these canyons & get
out the Timber & Lumber & build you good Homes
& make yourselfes & families comfortable. There is ^are^
a few words I want to say unto this people & I want
you to hear it & obey it. I would give a good deal
for what has been said on this Journey if I had it
But we have not a reporter in this Church that will
go with us ownly for pay G. D. Watt will not He would
see this Church in Tophat Before He will do one thing
ownly for us ownly as He gets his money down
I want to see improvem[en]ts here. I want to see a
good Meeting House here when I come again. I
would take Timber & make a Baloon Frame, & with
10 Men I could soon Make a Meeting House & put
on a good shingle roof & plaster good & Neat &
then set out your shade trees & fruit trees such
as Locus & Appletrees.

D H Wells spok 41 Minuts At the dismissal of
