A Voice Warns Mosiah's Mother in the Nauvoo Temple — 'Go to Your Baby'

While the Hancock family was living in Nauvoo, Clarissa Hancock was serving in the temple administering endowments to women when she received an urgent spiritual prompting. Her son Mosiah recorded it:

'There was a man who would get drunk in the temple; and once when mother was giving endowments to the women, a voice said to her, "Go to your baby." She went and found that drunkard lying on her child.'

A supernatural audible warning came to her in the midst of sacred ordinance work, directing her to leave and go to her infant. She arrived to find a 240-pound drunk man collapsed on top of the baby. She 'grabbed the fellow up and threw him on the floor by main strength.' The baby did not survive long after this, but the voice's warning enabled her immediate response.
