Sunday, Dec. 19th. I went to see if the boat, the "Colimo" had arrived with missionaries. It had not. At the usual 3:00 P.M. meeting few were present. The sun was hot. President Nichols went to the race track and hearing Joseph Smith spoken of as an extreme spiritualist, he took up his defense and had a warm time for about an hour. At 7:00 P.M. Brother Pratt talked half an hour and I, 35 minutes. I compared the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob with our idea of Deity and showed the fallacy of a God without body, parts and passions. I explained that the concept of a God without body, parts or passions is like the tip end of nothing whittled to a sharp point.
