I spent the day in Council with the Twelve Apostles at the house of President [Brigham] Young conversing with them upon a variety of subjects. Bro Joseph Fielding was present, having been absent four years on a mission to England. I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book.
