I Attended the school of the prophets & speeches were made By Pres-
ident Wells & several of the Twelve I went to the News office
& signed the Protest against the Passage of the Cullom Bill
By the senate. A contribution was taken up in the school to pay for
sending the Papers & Pamphlet to each Member of Congress
some $75 was collected. I attended the funeral of Mother Jordan
R L Campbells wife she was 70 years old. When I preached in
Scotland in 1845 she walked 40 miles to see an Apostle &
hear me Preach. During the funeral the Boys let my Horses
run away & Broak up the waggon some. I have been in vary poor
health for a week with a cold on the Lungs

This is an important day in the History of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints it is 40 years to day since the Church was
organized. There was about one foot of snow on the ground But a
small congregation of saints assembled at the old Tabernacle &
we held one Meeting John Taylor spoke followed By O. Pratt
W Woodruff & D. H. Wells. They spoke upon the organization of the
church, & of the Present Excitment upon the Cullom Bill which has
Passed the House & is now in the senate. It seems as though the
United States Government were determined to make war upon
us for our Religion if they do the war is between God & the Nation
The Conference was adjourned to Meet the 5 day of May I received
4 Numbers of the Illustrated Bee Journal, which I think ofis of great
Benefit to Bee raisers. I sent the weekly News to 12 persons as follows
Ozem Woodruff, Azmon, Thompson, Horace, Willford, Woodruff
Ezra Carter S. C. Moulton L Scammans, A. F. Williams R. Scholes,
& Phebe A. Snow, & Luther Wheeler

Brother Crams child R L. Campbell spoke I followed him
