| Note | Testimony of Jane Davies/Davis: I have been a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, forty-one years, and have tried to live faithful and true to all my covenants with God. And if I can prove faithful to the end I will pass away with the Glorious hope of an Eternal Salvation in the Kingdom of God [written 17 March 1892]. |
| Note | Spiritual experience of Jane Davies/Davis: As they were nearing Salt Lake City, their rations were cut again; each person was allowed three tablespoons of flour. Father was a man of large stature and could not exist on that small amount. Mother and Aunt Ellen noticed him failing and that his strength was nearly gone. As they made three small cakes out of the flour, each woman gave one of theirs to Father, although he never knew it and thru this he became stronger and continued on the journey. Otherwise he would have perished. |
| Note | Church Service of Jane Davies/Davis: Mother was a very religious woman and was a great help to Father the many years he acted as Counselor and Bishop of the Provo 3rd Ward. She was a Sunday School Teacher for many years, and a faithful Relief Society Worker. She was in the Presidency of Relief Society Teaching for a long time. . . . Her home was open to many converts from Wales. They stayed until they found homes of their own. |
