[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] ... Elder O Hyde told a dream which he had last fall. He saw the prophet Joseph who told him we should Conquer in the first Campaign. President Young we shall Conquer all the time if we do right for I Can tell you the time has Come when the Lord will sit to Judge the Nations and he will Controll things in such a manner that the people of the world will not understand that the Lord has any thing to do with it, no more than the Jews did in the days of the Savior...

President Young said He dreamed that President Buchanan sent him a fine time peace saying you may now regulate your own time. ...

O. Pratt said that He had often wished that He Could get faith enough to enjoy the Blessings the ancient Apostles Enjoyed. He said Joseph taught that unless the Apostles and Elders of this Church did fast & pray untill they Could get the Heavens opened unto them so they Could see the face of the Lord their testimonies would not be worth much to this generation. ...
