QUOTE OF THE DAY Lorenzo Snow
"Now an individual in order to secure the highest and greatest blessings to himself, in order to secure the approbation of the Almighty, and in order to continually improve in the things pertaining to righteousness he must do all things to the best advantage. Let him go to work and be willing to sacrifice for the benefit of his friends. If he wants to build himself up, the best principle he can do it upon is to build up his friends. . . Let your minds be expanded to comprehend and look after the interest of your friends that are around you, and where it is in your power to secure benefits to your friends do so" (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Lorenzo Snow, p.261-262).

1879 - Emma Hale Smith Bidamon, wife of the Prophet Joseph Smith and first president of the Nauvoo Female Relief Society, dies at her home---the riverside mansion or Nauvoo House---in Nauvoo, Illinois. During the previous few days, Emma had stated the Joseph had come to her in a vision and had shown her a "mansion of light" where she had seen and held her little baby, Don Carlos, who died in 1841. Joseph promised her that in time she would have all her children. At her death she was surrounded by three of her children---Joseph III, Alexander, and Julia---and her second husband, Lewis Bidamon. Her last moments were peaceful until she raised her self up in her bed, reached out with her left hand and said, "Joseph, Joseph," and then she died. She is buried next to her husband in the Smith Family Cemetery along the river in Nauvoo, Illinois.
