Heber C. Kimball · · 1855-02-25
Published in Journal of Discourses, Volume 3, pp. 160-164 (delivered February 25, 1855). Printed byline: 'A Discourse, by President H. C. Kimball, Delivered in the Tabernacle, Great Salt Lake City, February 25, 1855.' The discourse opens by referring to remarks Wilford Woodruff had just given on the same occasion; not part of a General Conference session. Pitman shorthand report; the speaker did not review this text before publication. Text transcribed from the printed JD, collated page-by-page against the BYU/IA page images. Does not fall inside a General Conference window in indexes/conference-calendar.md (nearest GC window is April 6-8, 1855); category set tabernacle_address.
Full text of the discourse as published in the Journal of Discourses. BYU ContentDM's item-detail page currently fails to render in modern browsers (loads, then a client-side script redirects to the generic lib.byu.edu collections page; site-wide BYU bug, not link-format specific); the IIIF page image used for collation still loads directly and a 2026-02-22 wayback snapshot of the item page is recorded as source_archived_url.
Page-anchored scan witness for Journal of Discourses volume 3, page 160; also used for collation.
Ingested; not yet independently reviewed.
