After discussions ....... .... to Sister Morrison to address the sisters with the best feelings to meet with the Sisters.  Also, she was not able to say much as ........ a bad cold.  She had wished the Sisters would all bear their testimony and speak their feelings.  Sister Peel .....spoke the Danish language and Sister Josephsen bore a faithful to the Latter Day good and wished with all her heart she was able to do all the good she desired to do. 

Sister Jensen also bore a faithful testimony and her only desire was to hold a standing in this church and kingdom(?) in time and eternity,  Many of the Sisters spoke their own language and a good spirit prevailed.
