The blessing of the most high will rest upon our Tabernacles, and our name will be handed down to future ages: our children will rise up and call us blessed: and generations yet unborn will dwell with peculiar delight upon the scenes that we have passed through. The privations that we have endured: the untiring zeal that we have manifested: the insurmountable difficulties that we have overcome in laying the foundation of a work that brought about the glory and blessings, which they will realize; a work that God and Angels have contemplated with delight, for generations past: that fired the souls of the ancient Patriarchs and prophets a work that is destined to bring about the destruction of the Powers of Darkness, the renovation of the earth, the Glory of God, and the salvation of the Human Family.
