Transcription

I took R. R. Pears at Lexington Junction and reached Richmond after going 8 miles where I got breakfast at Hotel and visited David Whitmer 83 years old that day. He said—my friend, if God ever uttered a truth, the testimony I now bear is true. I did see the angel of God and I beheld the glory of the Lord and He spoke and said that Record true. I feel I should be the last stranger to hear it I visited Leanidas D [illegible] and inquired for Daniel S. Relocated to Kansas.
