[Wilford Woodruff]
... The church minister in the Parish Sent a spy to attend meeting to carry him word what we preached. As soon as meeting closed I put my hand upon his shoulder & asked him what he thought of our doctrin. He replied "I think it is of God." He appeared asstonished when he left the house.

Almost evry person I conversed with said they wished to be Baptized as soon as an oppertunity offered. ...
