Father Harris said the Apostles said we have to fight against principalities and powers in high places. Br Hiram Page dug out of the earth a black stone & put it in his pocket. When he got home he looked at it & it contained a sentence on paper to be after it. As soon had he read one sentence another sentence came up & so on until he made 16 pages. Br Joseph was told of the fact one person asked Joseph if it was right. Joseph said that it was not from God and was a revelation that the devil had made. It was Broke to powder and the writing burnt. It was a work of the power of darkness. Amen.
