I was the first one to enter the water carrying Ubriana Nelson in my arms. i did not receive any greater knowledge of what the saints went through or the four beloved brothern who carried the whole Martin hand cart company across sweet water. but i do know that the ground we stould on was sacred and hollowed ground. I bare witness that the story of the saints is not somthing made up. as the claim the holocaust to have been. i know with out a shadow of a doubt the saints did come and suffer again trials. but it was for us. so that we may remember the faith,obiedence, and the love for the spirit of Elijah that was the driving force for all the saints to come on there journey and possible enter the salt lake valley, to begin the work of building a temple, a continueing the stone which was cut out of the mountain with out hands. this i do testify and seal my testimony in the sacred name of Jesus Christ our lord and Savior,
Amen.
