Susannah Stone traveled with the Wille Handcart company. Along the way, her feet had become frosted over, causing great discomfort. She stopped and “Sat down to await the end.”

“After a time I was aroused by a voice, which seemed as audible as anything could be, and which spoke to my very soul of the promises and blessings I had received and that I had a mission to perform in Zion. I received strength, and was filled with the Spirit of the Lord and arose and traveled on with a light heart.”
