[Brigham Young Sermon] Pres. Brigham Young'-spoke on the impropriety of the youth of Zion marrying instead of getting sealed. He also spoke on the cleanliness of person, before going to get their endowments; a woman should not go for a week after her menses were upon her, a man should not have intercourse with his wife for several days, but should be clean in body and exercised in spirit previous thereto; his clothing should be changed once or twice before going there.
