The Great Second Advent Movement: Its Rise and Progress

Israel Damon’s Testimony

I will give here, as corroborating the account given me by Elder Bates, the following statement:— GSAM 262.4

“About twenty years ago, just after I had commenced the observance of the Sabbath, Israel Damon related to me the circumstances of Sister White’s having the vision while he, Elder Bates, and Elder White and his wife were riding in the light wagon behind the refractory colt. I have to-day read the above description of the occurrence, as written out by Elder Loughborough, and it agrees precisely with what Elder Damon told me.” Signed, “R. S. Webber, Battle Creek, Mich., Feb. 9, 1891.” GSAM 262.5
