“We must cherish one another, watch over one another, comfort one another, and gain instruction that we may all sit down in heaven together.”
Lucy Mack Smith

“In 1761, we moved to the town of Marlow, where we remained until we had four children. When we moved there it was no other than a desolate and dreary wilderness. Only four families resided within forty miles. Here I was thrown into a situation to appreciate more fully the talents and virtues of my excellent wife; for, as our children were deprived of schools, she assumed the charge of their education, and performed the duties of an instructress as none, save a mother, is capable of. Precepts accompanied with examples such as hers, were calculated to make impressions on the minds of the young, never to be forgotten.”
Lucy Mack Smith, History of Joseph Smith by His Mother

“she assumed the charge of their education, and performed the duties of an instructress as none, save a mother, is capable of.”
