Great king to come to come sit upon the throne of David
spake of the crusifixion of Christ. His blood was shed &
that Nation had to be chastized in consequence of it &
they deserved it for they were worthy we know the
Blood of Christ was shed for the redemption of mankind
He spoke of the Endowments in the temple said the people always
were afaraid of the truth & always prejudicest against the profits
of God but that did not stop the spread of the work of God. some
say shall we stay here long I do not know but I can say that
we shall stay as long as we wish to. If all the Nations of the
Earth were to come against us they could not drive us away
if we driveo our duty before the Lord & put our trust in him
& do unto all men as we would wish to be done by in all things
& if all will do this we shall not have much trouble in the
kingdom of God some think that we have not as much faith
as we used to have I cannot believe this I believe we are
advanceing in the kingdom of God. some are much tryed
because all are not healed that they lay hands upon but I do not feel
so I had a case during conference concerning the case of
Sister Baris she was sick & I laid Hands upon her & blessed
her with life & helth & went to meeting in an hour I had
word that she was dead. it did not try me. the Lord saw fit to
take her & all is right. there is many duties devolving upon us
& one of those duties are to pay our debts if I owe a man
& He comes to me & says you owe me so much & I need it
in my family I will pay that man to the full extent of
my power I will divide the last loaf with him. I consider
this one of our duties & I will say I never knew
a man get rich by taking great Interest neither
do I ever expe[c]t to. He requested the Brethren
to remember the Twelve & administer in tempora[l]
things while they Adminst[er]ed in spiritual things

Sunday PM. Elder O. Pratt addressed the Assemb[ly]
He arose & said I should have been pleased to have heard
from Brother Woodruff & others if [I] had not been called
upon to speak I dont know when I have been mor
Edifyed than in the discourses I have heard at this
conference esspecially the discours of Brother Parley
yesterday morning it was so plain & simple I tried
to enter into the feelings of the speaker. I tryed to
bring mysel to this scene & fancied to mysel how I
would feel in Hearing the message of Glad tidings that
a savior was born & also in being associated with him
in life then the sorrow of his being taken away & crucified
then the great Joy in his resurrection & his teachings
while in his Immortal body. but when I think of
the greater things which are to take place in our
day I do not regret that I did not live in that day
for there are greater things to come forth than was
manifest in that day For that kingdom of God of which
all the prophets have spoken since the world began has now
come forth as a preparation for the second coming of
Christ not coming to be born in a manger but He will
