Patriarchal Blessing of William McClerry given by Joseph Smith, Sr. ... No enemy shall get the masters over thee Thou shalt have power over the winds & waves at thy command they shall be stilled, thou shalt be able to command Storms & Tempests & raging fires, Prisons Gates & bars shall not hold thee if thou wilt live close to the Lord ...

Thou shalt have an inheritance in Zion ... Thou Shalt live to se[e] the winding up s[c]ene of this generation, to See Jesus Christ come in the clouds of heaven with power & Great Glory, thou Shalt Stand in the flesh with one hundred forty & four thousands and sing their song, ... By the power & authority of the Holy Priesthood I seal the[e] up to eternal Life, Amen.
