Postscript

One morning, while it was still dark, a shining One from above did enter the camp and awaken old Brothers Faithful, Witness, and Prophesy, and told them to follow Him. This they did and He led them to a very high crag called Revelation Point and there did they get a glimpse of that celestial country which lieth somewhat near to this point. Then did such a glorious light shine upon them, the likeness of which can never be described, as though the glory of a thousand flaming, golden sunsets had in a moment burst upon their vision. Then were they overwhelmed with ecstasy and emotion, while o’er the vale which intervened a chorus as of a thousand angels’ voices was wafted to them upon the zephyrs of that heavenly world. Then were their souls so thrilled with joy and devotion that they fell prostrated before the presence of His majesty. Then did the shining One bid them return to the camp, to strengthen their brethren; “For now have you seen the glory of the Lord and your souls are vibrating with the harmonies of heaven’s music. Return unto them,” I say, “and hold a convocation, and a reading of the law of the Lord, that they may be edified and built up in the most holy faith, and in a knowledge of the truth.”

Now the record of this convocation which they held may be found in the annals of Mt. Zion.
