The following extract of letter from Mr.. Hyde
az Jaffa, is published in the Nauvoo Times and
Seasons of the 18th:
"On my passage from Beyroote to this place
(Jaffa) night before last, at one o'clock, as was
medtating on the deck of the vessel as she Was
beating down against a sultry wind, very bright
glitterng sword appeared in the Heavens, about
six feet IN length, with beautiful hilt as plain and
complete as any cut you ever saw. And what is
still more remarkable, an arm with perfect hand
stretched itself out, and took hold of the ht of the
sword The appearance made my hair rise, and
the flesh as it were, crawl on my bones. The
Arabs made wonderful outcry at the sight Oh,
Allah Allah! Allah was their exclamation all
over the vessel. mention this because you know
there is a commandment of God for me, which
says, Unto you it shall be given to know the
signs Of the times, and the sign of the coming of
the Son Of Man"
Yours in Christ,
