Boonville, Sept. 18th, 1840.
BROTHERS, D. C. SMITH & E. ROBINSON;
By request of brother James Blakeslee, I forward you the minutes of a Conference, held on the 18th and 19th of July 1840, to take into consideration of the expediency of dividing the branch called the Boonville branch, which spread over a part of four towns, and numbered between 80 and 90 members. There were present 6 Elders and 2 priests.
After Singing and prayer, proceded [proceeded] to business. Elder James Blakeslee was called to preside, and Edward H. Spinning chosen Clerk.
After mature deliberation, it was thought best to divide said branch, by taking all that part situated in the town of Lee and south west part of Boonville, and organize them into a seperate [separate] branch, to be called the Lee branch. Truman Hough was set apart and ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood, as also to preside over said branch. Nathaniel Spinning was then set apart to the office of a teacher, and Stephen Richman, and Horace Wild, were set apart to the office of deacons, and Benjamin Hawkins chosen Clerk.
It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.
Last Sabbath, I preached in Lowville and baptized four. In fact, Mormonism, (so called,) is getting a strong hold, the honest are investigating and obeying; and the little stone is rolling above the feet and toes. And thank heaven's King, the time is at hand when that great image, (whose brightness, is not so excellent as when Daniel saw it,) will be broken to pieces and become like the chaff of the summer threshing floor. And may the Lord cut his work short in righteousness, agreeable to his promise-and may his grace be sufficient for us, to preserve and uphold us.
I expect to leave in a few days for Washington county, in this state, to devote my whole time in the service of God, and I beg an interest in the prayer's of all God's people, that I may be kept from the power and influence of sin and satan; and that I may be an instrument in the hands of God, of turning many to righteousness.
Yours Respectfully, CHARLES R. DANA

It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.
Last Sabbath, I preached in Lowville and baptized four. In fact, Mormonism, (so called,) is getting a strong hold, the honest are investigating and obeying; and the little stone is rolling above the feet and toes. And thank heaven's King, the time is at hand when that great image, (whose brightness, is not so excellent as when Daniel saw it,) will be broken to pieces and become like the chaff of the summer threshing floor. And may the Lord cut his work short in righteousness, agreeable to his promise-and may his grace be sufficient for us, to preserve and uphold us.
I expect to leave in a few days for Washington county, in this state, to devote my whole time in the service of God, and I beg an interest in the prayer's of all God's people, that I may be kept from the power and influence of sin and satan; and that I may be an instrument in the hands of God, of turning many to righteousness.
Yours Respectfully, CHARLES R. DANA

Boonville, Sept. 18th, 1840.
BROTHERS, D. C. SMITH & E. ROBINSON;
By request of brother James Blakeslee, I forward you the minutes of a Conference, held on the 18th and 19th of July 1840, to take into consideration of the expediency of dividing the branch called the Boonville branch, which spread over a part of four towns, and numbered between 80 and 90 members. There were present 6 Elders and 2 priests.
After Singing and prayer, proceded [proceeded] to business. Elder James Blakeslee was called to preside, and Edward H. Spinning chosen Clerk.
After mature deliberation, it was thought best to divide said branch, by taking all that part situated in the town of Lee and south west part of Boonville, and organize them into a seperate [separate] branch, to be called the Lee branch. Truman Hough was set apart and ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood, as also to preside over said branch. Nathaniel Spinning was then set apart to the office of a teacher, and Stephen Richman, and Horace Wild, were set apart to the office of deacons, and Benjamin Hawkins chosen Clerk.
It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.

Boonville, Sept. 18th, 1840.
BROTHERS, D. C. SMITH & E. ROBINSON;
By request of brother James Blakeslee, I forward you the minutes of a Conference, held on the 18th and 19th of July 1840, to take into consideration of the expediency of dividing the branch called the Boonville branch, which spread over a part of four towns, and numbered between 80 and 90 members. There were present 6 Elders and 2 priests.
After Singing and prayer, proceded [proceeded] to business. Elder James Blakeslee was called to preside, and Edward H. Spinning chosen Clerk.
After mature deliberation, it was thought best to divide said branch, by taking all that part situated in the town of Lee and south west part of Boonville, and organize them into a seperate [separate] branch, to be called the Lee branch. Truman Hough was set apart and ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood, as also to preside over said branch. Nathaniel Spinning was then set apart to the office of a teacher, and Stephen Richman, and Horace Wild, were set apart to the office of deacons, and Benjamin Hawkins chosen Clerk.
It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.
Last Sabbath, I preached in Lowville and baptized four. In fact, Mormonism, (so called,) is getting a strong hold, the honest are investigating and obeying; and the little stone is rolling above the feet and toes. And thank heaven's King, the time is at hand when that great image, (whose brightness, is not so excellent as when Daniel saw it,) will be broken to pieces and become like the chaff of the summer threshing floor. And may the Lord cut his work short in righteousness, agreeable to his promise-and may his grace be sufficient for us, to preserve and uphold us.
I expect to leave in a few days for Washington county, in this state, to devote my whole time in the service of God, and I beg an interest in the prayer's of all God's people, that I may be kept from the power and influence of sin and satan; and that I may be an instrument in the hands of God, of turning many to righteousness.
Yours Respectfully, CHARLES R. DANA

It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.
Last Sabbath, I preached in Lowville and baptized four. In fact, Mormonism, (so called,) is getting a strong hold, the honest are investigating and obeying; and the little stone is rolling above the feet and toes. And thank heaven's King, the time is at hand when that great image, (whose brightness, is not so excellent as when Daniel saw it,) will be broken to pieces and become like the chaff of the summer threshing floor. And may the Lord cut his work short in righteousness, agreeable to his promise-and may his grace be sufficient for us, to preserve and uphold us.
I expect to leave in a few days for Washington county, in this state, to devote my whole time in the service of God, and I beg an interest in the prayer's of all God's people, that I may be kept from the power and influence of sin and satan; and that I may be an instrument in the hands of God, of turning many to righteousness.
Yours Respectfully, CHARLES R. DANA

Boonville, Sept. 18th, 1840.
BROTHERS, D. C. SMITH & E. ROBINSON;
By request of brother James Blakeslee, I forward you the minutes of a Conference, held on the 18th and 19th of July 1840, to take into consideration of the expediency of dividing the branch called the Boonville branch, which spread over a part of four towns, and numbered between 80 and 90 members. There were present 6 Elders and 2 priests.
After Singing and prayer, proceded [proceeded] to business. Elder James Blakeslee was called to preside, and Edward H. Spinning chosen Clerk.
After mature deliberation, it was thought best to divide said branch, by taking all that part situated in the town of Lee and south west part of Boonville, and organize them into a seperate [separate] branch, to be called the Lee branch. Truman Hough was set apart and ordained to the Aaronic Priesthood, as also to preside over said branch. Nathaniel Spinning was then set apart to the office of a teacher, and Stephen Richman, and Horace Wild, were set apart to the office of deacons, and Benjamin Hawkins chosen Clerk.
It was then voted that we divide the remaining part of the Boonville branch by taking all that part west of Boonville village, as also including Tolcottville and a part of the town of Graig, to be known as the west Boonville branch, Joseph L. Robinson was chosen presiding Elder, Francis Fox was ordained to the Aaronic priesthood, and Darius Preston to the office of teacher; William Johnson to the office of Deacon; Thomas Johnson was then chosen clerk, for said branch.
AUGUSTUS STAFFORD was then set apart to the office of a deacon, to serve the Boonville branch.
July 19th, one baptized, after which preaching, by brother Blakeslee. Afternoon William H. Hart, Daniel Botsford, and Thomas Johnson, was ordained to the Melchisedec priesthood; after which the ordinance of the Lord's supper was attended to, and Conference closed.
After meeting, one more was added to the church. Since the Conference, two more have been baptized by the hand of Elder Joseph L. Robinson.
Last Sabbath, I preached in Lowville and baptized four. In fact, Mormonism, (so called,) is getting a strong hold, the honest are investigating and obeying; and the little stone is rolling above the feet and toes. And thank heaven's King, the time is at hand when that great image, (whose brightness, is not so excellent as when Daniel saw it,) will be broken to pieces and become like the chaff of the summer threshing floor. And may the Lord cut his work short in righteousness, agreeable to his promise-and may his grace be sufficient for us, to preserve and uphold us.
I expect to leave in a few days for Washington county, in this state, to devote my whole time in the service of God, and I beg an interest in the prayer's of all God's people, that I may be kept from the power and influence of sin and satan; and that I may be an instrument in the hands of God, of turning many to righteousness.
