"As I went into the yard the Spirit said to me, 'Take your team and go to the farm,' which is some three miles south of the Tabernacle. "As I was hitching the horse to the wagon Mrs. Woodruff asked where I was going. "I said, 'To the farm.' "'What for?' she asked. "'I do not know,' I replied; but when I arrived there I found out. "The creek had overflowed, broken through my ditch, surrounded my home, and filled my barnyard and pig pen. My wife was wading in the water, trying to turn it from the lot, to save the home and family. "Through my own exertions I soon turned it and prevented much damage that might have occurred had I not obeyed the voice of the Spirit. "This same Spirit of revelation has been manifested to many of my brethren in their labors in the kingdom of God, one of which I will here name. "Elder Charles C. Rich was going from Sacramento to San Bernardino with a company of brethren. He had in his possession a large amount of money to make payment on their land purchase. This was known to some road agents in the vicinity, who gathered a company of robbers and went on ahead of Brother Rich and lay in ambush, intending to kill the 'Mormons' and rob them of their money. "Before reaching the company of robbers Brother Rich came to a by-path or trail. The Spirit then told him to take that path. "The brethren with him marveled at his course, not knowing that enemies awaited them, but they arrived in safety at San Bernardino with their lives and money, while the robbers wondered why their prey did not come."

I rejoice in being able to proclaim to all the world that I know that Joseph Smith was a prophet of the true and living God; that I know the gospel of Jesus Christ, commonly called "Mormonism," is in very deed the plan of life and salvation; that it is that gospel which it was proclaimed should in the latter-days be restored again to the earth by an angel flying in the midst of heaven, proclaiming it to every nation, kindred, tongue and people upon the face of the earth.
