Smith informs us that this pic- ture is an emblem of redemption. Do you see those four little figures ? Well, those are the four quarters of the earth. And do you see that big dog looking at the four figures ? That is the old Devil desiring to devour the four quarters of the earth Look at this person keeping back the big dog. That is Jesus Christ keeping the devil from devouring the four quarters of the earth. Look down this way. This figure near the side is Jacob, and those are his two wives. ...Now do you see those steps ?" " What, " I replied, " do you mean those stripes across the dress of one of Jacob's wives ?" " Yes, " he said, " that is Jacob's ladder. " " That is indeed curious, " I remarked ; " Jacob's ladder standing on the ground, and only reaching up to his wife's waist. " After this edifying explanation, a very respectable looking Mormon asked me to walk over to his house. This person was one of the committee appointed bv " revelation" to build the " Nauvoo house. " He informed me that he had migrated from the Johns- town District in Upper Canada.
