In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth I lay my hands upon thy head as thou hast no father to bless thee with a father's blessing. Thou art of the tribe of Benjamin and inasmuch as thou shalt live humble before the Lord thou shalt receive Benjamin's portion. Thou art entitled to the priesthood with all the blessings and privileges thereunto belonging.

Thou hast left thy native land to dwell among the saints which is well pleasing in the sight of the Lord. The spirit whispereth that thou hast a mission to fill in thy native land. Therefore dear brother gird on the gospel armor and make up thy mind to cross the mighty deep. Thou shalt have power to rebuke the winds and waves on thy passage if they rise to oppose thee. Thou shalt have power to confound all who rise in opposition to thy ministry. Thou shalt proclaim the gospel throughout the city of Edinburgh as with the voice of a trumpet. Many of the haughty and proud of that city shall humble themselves through thy words. Great men shall be brought down and many shall acknowledge the truth. Thou shalt go through the length and breadth of Scotland and shall perform a mighty Mission among thy Brethren. Through thy means many of them shall rejoice in the Kingdom of god.

Thou shalt have power to redeem all thy friends both dead and living. Thou shalt be blessed in thy family and thy children shall be useful in pushing forward the cause of Zion. Thou art not especially called to preach to the different nations of the Earth. When thou hast finished thy mission thou shalt return to Zion in peace and there have an inheritance in peace with thy family and great shall be thy joy.

Thou shalt be a counselor in the Church forever. I seal all these blessings upon thy head if thou wilt be sober and temperate in all things and faithful and I seal thee up unto eternal life In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Sister Ann Elizabeth, according to thy desire I place my hands upon thy head to bless thee and I ask God the eternal father for his spirit to invite thy blessing and fill thee with influence thereof. Thou art of the house of Israel and entitled through obedience to the gospel to the blessings of the new and everlasting covenant, with the gifts thereof. Thou art of the lineage of Ephraim and if thou art faithful thou shalt be crowned with the mothers in Israel who have fought the good fight of faith and won the prize. Teach thy children the principles of truth and virtue while in their youth and they shall grow up around thee, bless thee in thine old age, and bear thy name in honorable remembrance from generation to generation. Thou shalt also be enabled through prayer and faith to heal the sick of thy family and hold the adversary at bay, that health and peace may reign in thy dwelling, for the Lord knoweth the secrets of thy heart and if thou wilt ask in faith He will hear and answer thy petitions to thy satisfaction. Thy table shall be spread with the bounties of the earth and thou shalt have joy in thy daily avocations. Thou shalt comfort the hearts of the fatherless and give unto the needy.

This blessing I seal upon thy head in the name of Jesus Christ and I seal thee up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection. Even so, amen.
