And the Zion on the Earth will ere long metet with the Zion
of Enoch and there we will greet each other and we shall
have such Joy as we have never seen on the Earth
President Heber C Kimball then spoke a short time He said
in regard to what had been said by O. Pratt is all good.
In regard to the abobe [abode] of departed spirits I have no doubt
but this wourld will stand forever. Jesus says in this world
ye have tribulation but in me ye have pease [John 16:33], But I am going
to say a few words about Sister Mary W Woolley, we call
her dead she is dead in one sense, but not ^in^ another. I have
known her before she was in the Church, she is a good woman
she has always stood by her husband and has been true to
him and if she has been true in this life she will be in
the next and have her reward which will be the case in
the next probation with all. I believe in many Probation
When Sister Woolley gets in the next probation she will
sit down with Sarah and the ancient Holy women as well
as the Prophets and Apostles who have lived in this proba
tion when they go into the spirit world they sit down with Abram and the Patraiarchs and Prophets. She has had
many troubles in this life but she has got through them
all and I am confident she will sit down with all the
Holy men & women in the Eternal world, and will
remain with them Eternally. what she has past through
she has done for salvation and she has stood it well and
now has gone to rest, and I can say of a truth that I know
that she is now well off and all is well off with her. She has
sustained Brother Woolley in carrying out the doctrin of the Patriarkal order of marriage and this because God had
Had commanded it we have often herd President Young say
that He did not enter into it because he likied it but because
God had commanded it. If we had not done it we should have
been damed. He commanded LawMarks & others to enter into it
but they did not obey the word of the Lord and they have gone
and denied the faith while we remain and God will sustain
us here in the mountains, true yes it is as true as the sun,
and those who are faithful will be saved Sister Woolley
has been true and so has Brother Woolley and their sons
and daughters have been true men and women and
I say God Bless you Brother Woolley and your family
and I Bless you all that are faithful But a curse will
come upon the Nation that has sought our destruction
and as God lives what the nation seeks to bring upon us
will be brought upon them so we must be patient, the
Lord has them in his power and they cannot move ownly
as the Lord permits and God will regard all that we have
done in the Temple of God and we will have to fully carry
it out and if we have not done wrong or broaken our cov
enants we shall receive all that has been promised unto
us and all will be right And may God grant that all may
come upon our Enemies that the Lord may wish to bring
upon them. Amen
