Elder Noah Rogers administers to a paralyzed woman at Farmington, Connecticut, who walks the next day. William Clayton writes in his journal: ". . . M[argaret] is still miserable and unhappy and it does seem that my heart must burst. What shall I do? How shall I recompense? And how long must I thus suffer worse than death for that which I have always regarded as being the will of the Lord. By the help of the Lord I will do right. I have repeatedly offered to M[argaret] to try to get a release from the covenant and I have done all I know to make things comfortable but to no effect. She appears almost to hate me and cannot bear to come near me." Clayton's secret plural wife, Margaret Moon, had met two days previously with her returned-missionary fiancée, Aaron Farr, and told him of her marriage.
