Show 328 March 1871 there it comes again; how strange! What is it?" She lean'd back in her chair as if to swoon, then said, "There! there! it comes again. Thats three times I have felt like that in a few minutes. What can it mean?" I was going to reply when my heart felt to[ 0] full for I knew that the angel of hea[l]th had touched her three times and she had felt the power thro her whole system. That night she slept better and began to amend from that time and gain strength altho reduced nearly to a skeleton. Ohl how my heart rejoiced. How thankfull I was and tho I spoke not a word my soul parised [praised] the Lord for his loving kindnes to me in hearing my feeble petition. Some weeks after this my daughter Zaidee was very sick. I annointed her and laid hands on her and told [her] she would be better in the morning. I then laid her down in the bed and went into another room, shut the door and poured out my soul to God in her behalf, asking God to spare her life and raise her up from her bed of affliction. In the morning She felt better and wanted to get up and eat. I did this unto the others that were sick and in a few days had the satisfaction of seeing them all recover, and now they are all well , romping and shouting in the perfect enjoyment of hea[l]th and life. Truly God is good and kind to us his erring children. All glory and praise be to his holy name forever . By the Papers I see that peace has been declared between Prussia and France. While the Prussians were beseigeing Paris, the French were reduced almost to a state of starvation and the flesh of horses, dogs, rats, Bears, and elephants were sold at high prices for food . Large quanta ties of provisions have been sent to them from the states to releive them in their starving condition. The French to pay I think forty millions of dollars for war indemnity and cede to Prussia Sedan, Metz, Alacce-Lorr[a]ine and some other provinces and are obliged to keep fifty thousand troops of Prussia uti! these conditions are complid with.77 Many thousands have been slain on both sides: countries devasted, commerce broken up, and the wail of the widows and orphans is lammantable. Such is the results of a bloody war to gratify the whims of a few . ambitious men seeking to aggrandize themselves at the expense of the lives of thousands of their fellow men. Haste, haste glorious time when war shall be no more, when Jesus shall reign and mankind cultivate the arts of industry and peace and learn the art of war no more. In St Louis where I lived when a boy, there has been a terrific Hurricane doing much damage, in one instance blowing a locomotive weighing 30 tons with cars attached clean off the track 40 feet into a slough. Robberies, murders, suicides, poisonings, and child murder are on the increase out in the world, while in Utah all is peace or nearly so. Silver mines are being opened around Salt Lake County and hundreds of Gentiles are there seeking to obtain wea[l]th from them and trying their best to bring a collision between us and the U S Government.
