Meeting held on July 17, 1880:

"Sister Whitney then sang one of her sweet songs of Zion in the language which was spoken and sung (the Prophet Joseph said) by our first parents in the Garden of Eden. Sister Snow explained that Joseph Smith told Mother Whitney 'If she would use the gift with wisdom it should remain with her as long as she lived.- Sister Zina then gave the interpretation. The theme of which was rejoicing and praise to the Great Author and Giver of good."
