Transcription

Sunday 28. At home, a beautiful clear day.

My brother Hyrum [Smith] preached at the stand in the morning, and among other things said the time will shortly come, that when one man makes another an offender for a word, he shall be cut off from the church of Jesus Christ. There were prophets before Adam, and Joseph has the spirit and power of all the Prophets.
