125 years ago today - Apr 8, 1890

I had my father adopted to the prophet Joseph Smith. I would have been sealed to my father, but as my sisters who were in the church were not present, it was thought best to postpone this work. I received my second anointing[,] also my wife Eliza did. She also acted for my wife Mary Campbell in having her second anointing.
