B.   Janes report of the Elder’s teaching
From the life of Jane Treharne Ashton:   When Jane was sixteen years old, her father appointed her to report on the teachings of the Mormon Missionaries who were having a meeting. Jane did as requested and reported all she could remember. After her report, her father exclaimed this was the gospel he had been looking for. However, the missionaries had gone and did not return for three years. Upon their return, the family was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
