ApostleWilfordWoodruff adressed himself to the Priest-
hood. Told how the Prophet Joseph received the various keys and
powers for the restoration of Zion and the establishment of the king-
dom of God on the earth in these days. Repeated the words of Joseph
to the Twelve, when he rolled off the burden of those duties from his
shoulders to theirs, and reminded his brethren that they too must step for-
ward and take the places of those who were about to pass away, and
be ready to carry on the work of God in the earth. There was a
great change about to take place in Zion, and in Babylon. The Saints
should seek God in their secret closets, attend their prayer circles,
and not esteem these things lightly. Inasmuch as they did this
they should know the mind and will of God concerning them, and
be better prepared to accomplish it.
