  14  Yea, for this cause I have sent you hither, and have selected my servant ^aEdward Partridge, and have appointed unto him his mission in this land.

  40  And also let my servant William W. Phelps stand in the office to which I have appointed him, and receive his inheritance in the land;

  7  Wherefore, it is expedient that my servant Sidney Gilbert and my servant William W. Phelps be in haste upon their errand and mission.

  9  And again, I have called my servant Edward Partridge; and I give a commandment, that he should be appointed by the voice of the church, and ordained a bishop unto the church, to leave his merchandise and to ^cspend all his time in the labors of the church;

  1  Hearken unto me, saith the Lord your God, and I will speak unto my servant Edward Partridge, and give unto him directions; for it must needs be that he receive directions how to organize this people.

  17  And whoso standeth in this mission is appointed to be a judge in Israel, like as it was in ancient days, to ^bdivide the lands of the heritage of God unto his children;
