Walked in Orchard

[Petaluma, Calif.] Sabbath, January 4, 1873—We arose and walked in the orchard before breakfast.... We attended meeting at 10:00 a.m. At Sabbath School I spoke a few words to the children in reference to their lesson, “And what went ye out for to see?” etc. I then spoke to the people from Malachi 3:13 and 4:1-3. The ordinances followed. We think it was a profitable season. This is a delightful day. It seems like June weather rather than the fourth of January.... 6MR 290.3
