congenial spirit wandering to & fro so if all things have
not been conducted as you would wish in evry respect since
I came here I trust you will make some allowance
for my cituation I want the Anointed of the Lord to
remember me in their prayers that I may have power
to fill my place & station & overcome evry obsticle
And I am resolved to wage a warfare with both men
& Devils in the name of Jesus Christ & by virtue of the
Holy priesthood & the keys of the kingdom of God untill I
can perfect stand in the lot & place that God & the
president of the church has appointed me. You know my Nature, make, & spirit that I cannot sit down & rest
in peace if a work that I am appointed to do is not going
right No I never was made to fold my arms at
ease & sleep while Zion is travelling in pairs to be delivered
& while the God of heaven is whispering to me by the Holy
spirit day & right that his judgements are spedily to be poured
out open this Nations as well as America & that all the gentile
Nations will follow in their train And urging me to magnify
my calling while the day had lest Blood be found in my sheets
& then when I meet my councellor instead of bowing our keeds
Knees together to call upon God for my time to be spent in contending
for my standing place rights & place at times it makes me
sick at heart. I parktake of a portion of the same feeling that Joseph & Brigham is accquainted with at times when they have
had to rise up & tell the people they are president for the people
dont seem to know it among so many presidents unless they
acordingly tell them off it.
