Mormon History, Dec 4, 1847

[Brigham Young Sermon] I attended conference and proposed building a big log house in the hollow, for temporary use, telling the congregation not to be surprised if a city should be built there. The conference voted that Henry W. Miller be a committee of one to superintend the building, under the dictation of the Twelve. I told the conference that we must recommend ourselves as a people by our good works, to the Lord God Almighty. The conference was adjourned till December 24th to meet in the new house to be built. -- Winter Quarters, Nebraska [History of the Church. 7 Vols. B. H. Roberts, ed.
