[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 7 In Company with Mrs Woodruff I met with the quorum of the Twelve & their Ladies to partake of a feast composed of two large fat wild turkies & other rich food prepared by Samuel Wooley. We had an interesting feast & conversation upon a variety of subjects among which was the spirit of God and Holy Ghost.
It was remarked that the spirit of God en-lighteneth every man that cometh into the world. And when a man was baptized for the remission of sins & hands laid upon him for the gift of the Holy Ghost that blessing was sealed upon him & tarried with him if he was faithful & as light would recieve light & truth embrace truth the more of the Holy Ghost A man had the more power he would have & the more of the Holy Ghost would still cleave unto him and other subjects were spoken of. We spent the evening and returned home.
