[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] Elder Orson Pratt had been sick & nigh unto death with the Pleurisy in the left side. I went with the Twelve to visit him on the 2d instant & laid hands upon him. On the 3d Friday several of the Twelve laid hands upon him. I visited him in the Evening & laid hands upon him & told him in the name of the Lord that He Should live & not die & that He Should be healed for He had not done his work in the flesh. He began to amend & told me he thought He Should be able to attend Conference. I was quite surprised to see him Come into the Tabernacle this morning & take a seat with us.
Brother O Hyde spoke in the Morning & Presidet Young spoke in the afternoon & Corrected some of Brother Hydes teaching. The Twelve met at the Prayer Circle at 5 oclok. Erastus Snow Prayed. O Hyde was Mouth. Ten of the Twelve were present all Except O. Pratt & G. Q. Cannon.
