While we ask peace and protection for the
Saints, wherever they may be, we also solicit
the charity and benevolence of all the worthy
on earth, to purchase the righteous a holy
home, a place of rest and a land of peace,
believing that no man who knows he has
a soul will keep back his mite, but cast it in
for the benefit of Zion; thus when time is no
longer, he with all the ransomed of the Lord
may stand in the fulness of joy, and view
the grand pillar of Heaven, which was built
by the faith and charity of the Saints, beginning
at Adam with this motto in the base "Repent
and live" surrounded with a beautiful circle
sign supported by a cross, about midway up
its lofty column, staring the world in letters of
blood "The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand" and finished
with a plain top, towering up in the midst
of the celestial world, around which is written
by the finger of Jehovah: "Eternal Life is the great-
est gift of God."
Although we may fail to show all men
the truth of the fulness of the Gospel, yet we
hope to be able to convince some that we are
neither deluded nor fanatics, but like other
men have a claim on the world for land
