Abraham of Isaac and of Jacob, for thou art the seed of
Abraham of the tribe and linage of Joseph of the blood of Ephraim
Thy life hath been preserved for a special purpose in the
mind of God, which purpose shall be fully known to the[e] in
the morn of the first resurrection. We seal the[e] up unto eternal
life. we say unto thee thou shalt have part in the first resurrec-
tion, and thou shalt come forth iand stand with all thy
posterity and thy kindred who shall enter into the everlasting
covenant and receieve the gospel of Jesus Christ, and with them
thou shalt recieve an exhaltation in the celestial glory of God
thou shalt occupy that place in the linage of thy fathers designed
for thee in the kingdom of God. Thy friends that remain
after thou art in thy grave shalt receieve for and in thy
behalf evry seal of the covenant that belongs to the Melchezedak
priesthood or the kingdom of God that should not be sealed upon
they head while thou art living, so that evry blessing that
Abram Isaac or Jacob receieved shall be thine in the celestial
world. We seal upon thy head all the blessings that the patria-
rch of the Church has in his heart to seal upon thee. We seal
upon thy head the speirit of peace so that thou mayest feel &
say like Simeon of old that thou hast seen the salvation
of God [Luke 2:25-30] and art made a partaker of the fulness of the
everlasting covenant. Thy body shalt rest in peace and
arise with the just and enjoy celestial glory. All these blessings
we seal upon thy head in the name of JESUS CHRIST AMEN
