Mormon History, Jul 24, 1847 (Morning)

[Brigham Young Sermon] President Young arose from his bed and took a survey of the country. While gazing on the scene before us, he was enwrapped in vision for several minutes. He had seen the valley before in vision, and upon the occasion he saw the future glory of Zion and Israel, as they would be, planted in the valleys of the mountains. When the vision had passed, he said, 'It is enough. This is the right place. Drive on.' So I drove to the encampment already formed by those who had come along in advance of us. -- Salt Lake City [Brigham Young, The Man and His Work. Preston Nibley.
