Last Sunday’s answer:

C. 1/10

From the life of Elizabeth Haven Barlow:   Those who were put into Liberty [jail] for treason and at Richmond [jail] for murder, have been falsely imprisoned, and they even now hold an action against the state [of] Missouri for this treatment. What these things will result in we know not. Things have transpired within one year which the Church looked not for, and what another year will accomplish is known only in futurity. When Heber Kimball (one of the Twelve) was in England he had a vision of future scenes. He remarked to me one day that the past scenes was not one tenth of the tribulations which I should soon see. Therefore, said he, “Sister, prepare thyself for greater things.”
