1  ^aThomas, my son, blessed are you because of your faith in my work.

  5  Wherefore, I revoke the commandment which was given unto my servants ^aThomas B. Marsh and Ezra Thayre, and give a new commandment unto my servant Thomas, that he shall take up his journey speedily to the land of Missouri, and my servant Selah J. Griffin shall also go with him.

  31  And also my servant Ezra Thayre and my servant Thomas B. Marsh;

  1  Behold, I say unto you, my servants ^aEzra and Northrop, open ye your ears and hearken to the voice of the Lord your God, whose word is quick and powerful, sharper than a two-edged sword, to the dividing asunder of the joints and marrow, soul and spirit; and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
