In the year 1868 my father received his second
anointing, and in about three week he died.
About two years afterward, I dreamed father
came to me while I was in bed, the house was
lit up like day: he talked to me for some time,
telling, which seems to me, things that were coming
to pass, and things which I should do. After his
conversation with me, he went out of the house, and
I awoke or come to my self, for it seemed that I had
not been asleep. There was considerable light in
the house, I arose up and looked out of the
window and saw the hills and mountains very plain
and thought it was day light, as the moon give
no light at that time, as it was near the new moon.
I started to dress, when the thought came to me to
think it all over, and I would be better able to
tell mother, just as it was given me. I placed my
elbow on the pillow and my hand over my eyes
while I thought it over. Then I went to get up
and found the room in darkness: it scared
me so, that every thing father had said, was taken from
me.
