120 years ago today - Apr 19, 1893

[Apostle Marriner W. Merrill Diary] I attended a meeting of the Priesthood in the Temple in which all the Stakes of Zion were represented but Cassia; Canada and Mexico were also represented; 104 Brethren present. Had two long meetings and all spoke but the Twelve Apostles, they having all spoken at the dedicatory services. Our meeting lasted 212, hours in the forenoon and 4 hours in the afternoon. All testified of the Lord's acceptance of the Temple, and they each and all of them would uphold in all things the First Presidency and Twelve Apostles
