John Taylor's Vision of Destruction (1877/8)
Á¸ Å×ÀÏ·¯ÀÇ ¡®Æĸꡯ¿¡ °üÇÑ ½ÃÇö (1877/8)
This was allegedly a revelation received by John
Taylor on (depending on the source) 16 December 1877 or sometime in 1878, and
is reprinted in (quite possibly among others) Wilford Woodruff's journal,
1833-1898, ed. Scott G. Kenney, Midvale, Utah: Signature Books, 7:419-23; Unpublished
revelations of the prophets and presidents of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, V. 1, comp. Fred C. Collier, Salt Lake City, Utah: Collier's
Publishing Co., 1979, pp. 119-23; and Spiritual survival in the last days,
by Blaine and Brenton Yorgason, Salt Lake City, Utah: Deseret Book Company,
1990, pp. 44-48. I have also seen this attributed to Wilford Woodruff, dated
1878, in a slightly different form; that version is available at this site, as well.

A response to this text, based on Richard E. Turley's
book Victims, exists and very strongly challenges the authenticity of
this text.
I went to bed at my usual hour half past nine o'clock.
I had been reading the Revelations in the French language. My mind was Calm,
more so than usual if possible to be so. I Composed myself for sleep but Could
not sleep. I felt a strange stupor Come over me and apparently became partially
unconscious. Still I was not asleep, nor awake With stange far away dreamy
feelings.

The first I recognized was that I was in the
Tabernacle at Ogden sitting on the back seat in the Corner for fear they would
Call upon me to Preach, which after singing the second time, they did, by
Calling me to the Stand.

I arose to speak and said I did not Know that I had
anything special to say Except to bear my Testimony to the Truth of the Latter
Day work when all at once it seemed as though I was lifted out of myself, and I
said "Yes, I have sumthing to say, it is this--some of my brethren present
have been asking me what is Coming to pass, what is the wind blowing up. I will
answer you right here what is Coming to pass shortly.

I was imediately in Salt lake City wandering about the
streets in all parts of the City and On the door of every house I found a badge
of mourning, and I Could not find a house but what was in mourning. I passed by
my own house and saw the same sign there, and asked, 'Is that me that is dead?'
Sumthing gave me answer, 'No, you [shall] live through it all.'

It seemed strange to me that I saw no person [on] the
street in my wandering about through the City. They seemed to be in their
houses with their Sick and Dead. I saw no funeral procession, or any thing of
that kind, but the City looked very Still and quiet as though the people were
praying and had Controll of the disease what ever it was.

I then look in all directions over the Territory, East
west North and South, and I found the same mourning in every place throughout
the Land. The next I knew I was Just this side of Omaha. It seemed as though I
was above the Earth, looking down to it as I passed along on my way East and I
saw the roads full of people, principally women, with just what they Could
Carry in bundles on their backs traveling to the mountains on foot. And I
wondered how they Could get there, with nothing but a small pack upon their
backs. It was remarkable to me that there were so few men among them. It did
not seem as though the Cars were running. The rails looked rusty, and the road
abandoned, And I have no conception how I traveled myself.

As I looked down upon the people I Continued Eastward
through Omaha and Council Bluffs which were full of disease, and women every
whare. The States of Missouri and Illinois were in turmoil and Strife, Men
killing each other, and women joining in the fight, family against family
Cutting each other to pieces in the most horrid manner.

desolation. The White House Empty, the Halls of Congress the same Everything in
ruins. The people seemed to have fled from the City and left it to take Care of
itself.

I was next in the City of Baltimore and in the square
where the Monument of 1812 Stands, in front of St. Charles and other Hotels I
saw the Dead piled up so high as to fill the square. I saw Mothers Cut the
throats of their own Children for the sake of their blood, which they drank
from their veins to quench their thirst and then lie down and die. The water of
the Chesapeake and of the City were so stagnant and such a stench arose from
them on account of the putrefaction of Dead bodies that the very smell Caused
Death and that was singular again I saw no men except they were dead, lying in
the streets, and vary few women, and they were Crazy mad, and in a dying
Condition. Every whare I went I beheld the same all over the City, And it was
horrible, beyond description to look at.

I thought this must be the End. But No I was seemingly
in Philadelphia, and there every thing was Still. No living soul was to be seen
to greet me, and it seemed as though the whole City was without an inhabitant.
In arch and Chestnut Street and in fact Every whare I went the putrefaction of
the Dead bodies Caused such a stench that it was impossible for any Creature to
Exhist alive, nor did I see any living thing in the city.

I next found myself in Broad way New York and here it
seemed the people had done their best to overcome the disease. But in wandering
down Broadway I saw the bodies of Beautiful women lying stone dead, and others
in a dying Condition on the side walk. I saw men Crawl out of the Cellars and
rob the dead bodies of the valuables they had on and before they Could return
to their coverts in the cellars they themselves would roll over a time or two
and die in agony.

On some of the back street I saw Mothers kill their

Destruction every whare.

I then went to the Grand Central Park and looking back
I saw a fire Start and just at that moment a mighty East wind sprang up and
Carried the flames west over the City, and it burned untill there was not a
single building left Standing whole Even down to the wharfs. And the shipping
all seemd to be burned and swallowed up in the Common destruction and left
Nothing but a Desolation whare the great City was a short time before. The
Stench from the bodies that were burning was so great that it Carried a great
distance across the Hudson River and bay, and thus spread disease and death
wharever the flames penetrated. I Cannot paint in words the Horror that seemed
to Encompass me around. It was beyond description or thought of man to
Conceive.

Immediately after I seemed to be standing on the west
bank of the Missouri River opposite the City of Independence but I saw no City.
I saw the whole States of Missouri & Illinois and part of Iowa were a
Complete wilderness with no living human being in them. I then saw a short
distance from the river Twelve men dressed in the robes of the Temple Standing
in a square or nearly so. I understood it represented the Twelve gates of the
New Jerusalem, and they were with hands uplifted Consecrating the ground and
laying the Corner Stones. I saw myriads of Angels hovering over them and around
about them and also an immens pillar of a Cloud over them and I heard the
singing of the most beautif[ul] music the words 'Now is established the Kingdom
of our God and His Christ, and He shall reign forever and Ever, and the Kingdom
shall never the Thrown down for the Saints have overcome.' And I saw people
Coming from the River and different places along way off to help build the
Temple, and it seemed that the Hosts of the angels also helped to get the
material to build the Temple. And I saw some Come who wore their Temple...robs
to help build the Temple and the City and all the time I saw the great pillar
of Cloud hovering over the place.

Instantly I found I was in the Tabernacle at Ogden yet
I Could see the building going on and got quite animated in Calling to the
people in the Tabernacle to listen to the beautiful music that the Angels were
Making. I Called to them to look at the Angels as the House seemed to be full
of them and they were saying the same words that I heard Before 'Now is the
Kingdom of our God Esstablished forever & Ever.' And then a voice said 'Now
shall Come to pass that which was spoken by Isaiah the Prophet 'that seven
women shall take hold of one man, saying &c (Isaiah 4:1). ['And in that day
seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and
wear our own apparel: only let us be called by they name, to take away our
reproach.']

At this time I seemed to Stagger back from the pulpit
& F D Richards and some one els Caught me and prevented me from falling
when I requested Brother Richards to apologize to the audience for me because I
stoped so abruptly and tell them I had not feinted but was exhausted. I rolled
over in my bed and heard the City Hall Clock Strike Twelve.
