representative, the blessed Mother of the New Creation. Therefore
the box was covered by her and sent to the Holy Mount, which the
box represented as byeing the centre of the body of Christ.
And it was her will that after it was received and each of her
children at the Mount had received their portion of all these
heavenly gifts, and it was sealed and filled with love and blessings
by the church, then it should be returned and each of Mother's
children at Wisdom's Valley should receive a portion of every gift
contain/ed thereon and therein to show the union and love of the
two parts of the first church of Christ on earth, yea, and in
Heaven."
The following is a present from Mother (given at Holy Mount) for
the head shiny folks at the Valley - four white birds with a gold
spot on their heads, 400 heavenly blue birds with a white spot on
their heads for the elders, brethren and sisters. Tho$se belonging
to the first born have a piece of gold in their mouths with these
words written thereon - 'My love, my love, to you my dear children.1
The rest have a paper in their mouths containing a pretty song
or a comforting word to each one."
