Land it is beginning to progress like fire in a day Stubble We have wrote to the president
of the Seventies to send us 20 of the quorum & also wrote for some High priest.
Notwithstanding we have Baptized about 500 whare I am now labouring, yet it does not
we are daily Baptizing as many now as at any time. We having a spare day a short time
since met at Elder Kingtons & had a feast with about 100 Saints Elders Young,

camp meeting & preached upon the Book of Mormon & after Meeting Baptized 14
& 9 next morning We are Baptizing daily & some of the time 4 & 5 times a day
these are busy days with me. Preaching, Baptizing, confirming, Ordaining, Counciling,
writing, trouhing, keeping journals, & all together gives me but little time to
rest But I never enjoyed Better health or Spirits than at the present time. I am

& myself lade hands upon her & she was healed & now walks upright with
out a crutch or staff. Signs are following the believer in this land. My Dear
Phebe it does my Soul much good to see your resignation to the will of God
in the midst of our seperation. The Lord is blessing me labours much in this land, be
patient untill we meet again, you shall not loose your reward, for your reward
shall be to stand with me in Zion with the children which God shall give us. & enjoy
each others society with our children for one thousand years while Christ reigns
& then to inherit the earth together to part no more. & enjoy far greater glories
& Blessings than the present state of things can afford. I think this will a[paper torn] repay us
for any sacrifice we can make for a few years. Pray for me that I may be humble in
the midst of prosperity as well as adversity. I feel a great desire to do the will of God in
all things. My prayer to God is that health & strength, grace & resignation to the will of God
may continue with you & the children which God has given us unto the end. & Also that
God will Bless Joseph & his councillors with means, wisdom, & power to do the work of God in
Zion & her stakes. & that all the Saints may be Sanctified by a Celestial Law is the prayer of
Willford Woodruff

Remember me to Brother Meacham I know how to sympathize with him with a broken leg. You ask me if I
can tell you when I shall come home No Phebe I cannot tell you now but I shall return to the
bosom of my family as soon as the Lord will. I expect quite a number of the saints will go to America
from England this fall. We probably shall know more what the will of God is concerning us in few months
hence. we have made some enquiry of Joseph (by letter) concerning us we expect to hear from him before
long. the Lord is getting some strong holds in this country we are laying the foundation for a mig
hty work here, two or three of us think of visiting London immediately after the conference if the Lord will
& setting up the work there. write as soon as you get this & give me all the knews & tell me how
you & the children get along direct to Ledbury, Herefordshire, England. I ever remain your Willford
