Seventh Day morning
I felt quite unwell yet I met with the quorum
& conversed upon a variety of subjects among
which were the progress of the work of God &
the emegration of the Saints, the light blessings
& glory that awaiteth Zion & the blessings that
approach those who keep the Law of God. Truth &
virtue will bring exhaltation to the soul in the
security of knowledge while Bigotry & superstition
will Join vice in debasing man in ignorance
untill he degrades humanity & looses the objet
for which he was created. P P. PrattOrson Hyd
