(Online document scan of Journal of Discourses, Volume 10) Journal of Discourses Volume 10 DELIVERED BY PRESIDENT BRIGHAM YOUNG, HIS TWO COUNSELLORS, THE TWELVE APOSTLES, AND OTHERS. REPORTED BY G. D. WATT AND J. V. LONG, AND HUMBLY DEDICATED TO THE LATTER-DAY SAINTS IN ALL THE WORLD. VOL. X. LIVERPOOL: PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY DANIEL H WELLS, 42, ISLINGTON. LONDON: LATTER-DAY SAINTS' BOOK DEPOT, 30, FLORENCE STREET, ISLINGTON. 1865. Preface We have the satisfaction of again presenting to the Saints and the public another Volume of the Journal of Discourses. The present Number completes the tenth Volume, and we expect it will prove as interesting and instructive as the former have done. It would be a work of supererogation to pen a preface upon the writings or sermons of the First Presidency or the Twelve Apostles, they speak for themselves; but, we can only say that as every day seems to increase the prosperity of Zion, and crown with success the labors of the Servants of God, the present Volume, containing as it does many discourses on Temporal and Spiritual improvements, the development of the Work, &c., ought to prove a valuable acquisition to all those who love the truth, and long for the redemption of scattered Israel.
