[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 26 I went out fishing with Br Luce & Pearoe in A 24 ton bark 6 m. We fished in 30 fathoms water 25 Codfish some would weigh [2?]0 lbs. 50 large Haddock 5 Hake & got back to the House at 10 oclok. I was quite sea sick going in strained my side & stomach & vomited some blood. I preached to A House full at Br Pierce at 4 oclok. Spoke 2 Hours. Had the spirit of the Lord upon me & spoke vary plain to the people. There had been many baptized upon this Island but were now all broaken up. Some gone west some Apostitized & some dead. 16 still profess to have A standing in the Church.
