“ In placing Oliver before the people, President Young said, "Brother Lorenzo Snow has been, for many years, building up and sustaining a system to unite the people in their financial affairs, which I approve, and in order that he may not be embarrassed, or in any way interrupted in that direction, we propose his son Oliver to occupy this position he will take his father's counsel and be one with him." ”

“ At that time, Brigham City could boast of 110 house suffi- ciently large to accommodate the immense gathering of the people, and the conference was held in a bowery, with a com- modious stand, which was neatly and .tastefully fitted up, and with special regard to the comfort and convenience of the Priesthood, who occupied it. Before the close of conference, President Youno- re-organized the Box Elder Stake of Zion. ”
