◑Contemporaneous report

Published in Journal of Discourses, Volume 5, pp. 138-144. The printed byline reads only "Discourse by Orson Hyde," with no place or date given (unlike the discourses around it in this volume). The BYU ContentDM catalog record for this scan (id/2238, which covers both this entry and the preceding Kimball discourse) gives date_original "August 2, 1857"; the opening line ("this morning") is consistent with a same-day Bowery meeting following brother Kimball's afternoon/evening discourse (jod-05-025) — hence date_precision approximate and occasion inferred rather than printed.
