[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] ... President Joseph Smith arose & Addressed the meeting as a christian Prophet for about an hour much to our edefycation. Many remarks he made were plain & pointed. Some vary applicable to Dr Foster which he afterwards acknowledged to be true. Joseph said the Pagen Prophet had prophesied one thing that was true viz that if we did not build the temple & Nauvoo house it would proove the ruin of the place that if we did not build those buildings we might as well leave the place & that it was as necessary to build one as the other,,, & many other things were said much to the purpose.
