Meeting held in Social Hall July 6th, 1874. Opened by singing and prayer by Sister Madsen.
Minutes of a former meeting were read and accepted. Sister Madsen exhorted the sisters to speak their feelings freely as our Presidentess is not able to attend owing to Business. Sister Jensen made some remarks in Danish touching on the disobedience of the people. Said it will be like the persecution in Nauvoo the way they indulge in tea and coffee and God will scourge us if we don't repent and do better. Sister Peterson felt glad she is one with the rest; hope to continue faithful . God will help them that will do right. When we have a little trouble it will draw us nearer to God. Sister Borg and Tidwell visited the folks in the 1st ward, nearly all felt well. Most all of the Danish sisters spoke in their own language. Sister E. Seely bore her testimony to the truth of the work. She was engaged in hope to go on to the end, always feels glad to visit the saints. Said she believes this U. O. (United Order) is just as right as baptism for the remission of sins. Sister Peel said if this Order is the thing that will seperate the bark from the wood, its alright. Lets be kind to one another, keep good company, do right as far as in power. Sister Simpson made some scattering and edifying remarks and hop to be faithful to the end.
Closed by singing, and prayer by Sister Peel.
L. Madsen, Presided
E. Wallis, Secretary
