afternoon at which Elders Kimball and Smith preached and
I bore my testimony to their words. One man arose
and opposed us, and was angry because of the truth of
God. He continued opposing, until the police stoped

found a plan contrived by several of the preachers for

testimony. When we found this, we went our way and
found four persons who received our testimony and
offered themselves for baptism

my Herefordshire field of labour and walked to Bro Corner's and visited several other friends. Two offered
themselves for baptism. I visited St Paul's and then
returned home. Elders Kimball and Smith had

visiting places and things connected with the crown. We
started out together and walked to King St. and Union
