80 years ago today - Mar 15, 1934

[President Heber J. Grant Diary] Had a splendid night's sleep and awoke at 4:45. After my usual forty-five minutes of exercises in bed, which I take nearly every day of my life, I uttered one of the most earnest prayers I ever did in my life for wisdom to guide me in connection with the school troubles and the failure to make improvement in our Mutual and Sunday School boards, keeping men who are not fundamentally sound on doctrine, in my judgment. I also prayed again regarding the patriarch. I wish I could get the impression to appoint Hyrum G. Smith's boy or to insist on some one else occupying that position. Talked some letters to my dictaphone before getting out of bed.
