[Apostle Heber J. Grant Diary] At 9 A.M. met as per appointment in the Endowment House with the First Presidency, Twelve, Counselor Wells, Prests of Stakes & 4 others-we had met together fasting and for the purpose of organziing [sic] the School of the Prophets--Last evening or this morning all had taken a bath & put on clean cloth garments--excepting Bros Wells and Smoot, they knew nothing of this requirement. Prest Taylor requested them to bathe and change their garments. [On the following pages, Grant gives an account of John Taylor washing the feet of the 38 men assembled there, starting with Zebedee Coltrin, after which ordinance they all drink glasses of wine and eat bread.]
