[Payson School of the Prophets]

.... We should cease fault finding, bickerings, and strife and cultivate peace, love and unity. If we will do this we will never again be driven from our homes. Let us be united lest we receive a scourge. Look at mens good qualities and not at his bad ones, and vindicate each others characters. Showed by several anecdotes the selfishness of humanity. Advised all to cease dealing with apostates. They are seeking for our blood and especially for the blood of President Young and the leaders of Israel. That is the spirit of apostasy and ever has been.
