<​December 30​> the same day I left : only about 7½ hours going 101 miles, (38 of it by Coach) I stayed over the Sabbath there, preached twice to a very attentive congregation. In the afternoon the house was full to [HC 4:251] overflowing. Elder <​Henry​> Glover is preaching in this place, and in the regions round, with much success. I think he is a humble, good man, and will do much good. I attended the Gadfield Elm Conference. The minutes of the Garway <​Conference​> were read, which had been held on the 8th.; after this I visited the brethren ’till the Stanley Hill Conference which was held on the 21st.— The Church in Garway numbers 95 members 1 Elder, 7 Priests, 3 Teachers and 1 Deacon— At the Gadfield Elm Conference there were 17 branches represented, 327 members, 13 Elders, 31 Priests, 9 teachers. The Stanley Hill Conference contains 25 branches, which — — — represented 839 Members 17 Elders 57 Priests, 16 teachers and 1 deacon. Including Officers, there are in these 3 Conferences, 1261 members, 31 Elders, 95 Priests, 28 Teachers and 2 Deacons, making 254 added since the October Conference. I attended the Conference in the <​Staffordshire​> Potteries on the 25th.; we had a good meeting; but I have not the Minutes before me, so I cannot give a particular statement of the Church there, but I can say, they are prospering. In my travels and at the Conferences, there were some baptized & many ordained. We can say truly the Lord is doing a great work in the Land. The gospel is preached to the poor, and signs follow them that believe. I arrived in last evening, and expect to tarry here till the Book of Mormon is completed.
