[At fast meeting in the Salt Lake temple:] Pres[ident] [Joseph F.] Smith spoke a half hour at the last and said in regard to Apostle A[braham] O[wen] Wooduff and wife the Lord permitted their death but did not Foreknow their death not plan [sic] the same but they having placed themselves in the way of a d[e]structive element were overtaken and their lives sacrificed.
The Lord would no doubt overrule it for good but He was not responsible for their untimely taking off.
[Seymour B. Young, Diary]
