"The Latter day Saints are being murdered
in the north for the Gospel's sake and those
that are determined to serve God are fleeing
to save their lives. But we are only going to
be driven to , and there stand still,
for we have been driven all we intend to be
driven, for there we will stand still and see
the salvation of our God or die for Zion's sake."
Then I rode on to the center of and
there saw the last man putting the last half
bushel of wheat into his wagon which just
filled the wagon box, and bringing a spirit
of peace to me, thinking that he was the last
man, and that he would be out in a few moments
and that then all the people of Cedar City would
be safe on the road to St. George.
I rode quickly back and overtook the train
outside of town. A thought came to me, wondering
if the Saints would come from towns beyond
Cedar. I turned the head of my horse eastward
& put the spurs to him, and as quick as thought
I was on the peak of the highest mountain
with my horse turned around and looking
north. I saw the road, as it were as straight,
as an arrow from Cedar City to ,
filled with teams, wagons, horsemen & people
walking afoot, just about to enter Cedar City
when Cedar City people had just left on the
southern side. Thus ended my vision.
