PRESIDENT ANGUS M. CANNON

said he desired to bear his testimony to the truth of Brother [John Henry] Smith's remarks. When he was ten years of age, he had himself heard the testimony of Patriarch Hyrum Smith, one of the eight witnesses, to the divinity of the Book of Mormon; he had also heard the testimony of the Prophet Joseph, in Nauvoo. In the autumn of 18857, at the Kirtland Temple, Martin Harris bore testimony to him regarding the truth of the sacred record of the ancient inhabitants of America. On the seventh of the last month, (Jan. 1888,) Brother Cannon called on David Whitmer, to hear his testimony. The old gentleman was then eighty-three years of age, and very feeble. He raised his hand and said: "My friend, if God ever uttered a truth, I tell the truth now." He then went on and told how he saw the glory of the Lord and heard the voice of the angel. His words were accompanied by the power of God. Brother Cannon closed his remarks by exhorting the Saints to show by their example their unfaltering faith in God.
