Notable Quote: "I try to submit to the all wise through heart sending decree of my Heavenly Father, but at times I feel so entirely prostrated that I am unable to attend to anything- how dark and inscrutable are the ways of Provence. My trails and afflictions are greater than any person in the whole circle of my acquaintance, but I suppose not more than I deserve & I desire to submit to them"
