On my return home from council
I looked over my Journal for 1846
And the result of my labours will
be found on another page

And thus another year has past and
gone into eternity and has bourn its
report to God of me and all other
men. I still live upon the earth
with my brethren the Twelve
while many of my brethren have
been called into the eternal world
whatever I may have done or left
undone not pleasing in the sight
of my Heavenly Father I ask God
my Heavenly Father in the name
of Jesus Christ his Son to forgive
me and give me grace according
to my day during the year to
come and give me power and a
disposition to do good all the
days of my life be they few or
many and to save myself and
household and all commiteted to my
carharge. One year ago this night
I was in Liverpool England but
this night finds me in the midst
of the camp of Israel, at winter
quarters in the Omaho Nation in the
widlderness in the land of Joseph surrou-
nded by the Lamanites who are poor
rwreched and miserable and have been
so for many generations in consequ-
ence of the sins of there forefathers
