Elizabeth Barton's Conversion through Answered Prayer and Reading

“My friend was only too glad to tell me of the true and everlasting gospel, and to answer any questions. I was very interested and just wanted to know the truth. Books and tracts were given me to read, and amongst others, The Voice of Warning, and My Reasons for Leaving the Church of England. I well remember beginning to read the Voice of Warning. I had only got through a few pages, when I knew that book was true, and I felt that if I read it through, I must confess that the doctrines taught by the Latter-day Saints were true, and that I must unite myself with them, but at that time I did not feel disposed to do so, so I just put the book away out of my sight. But "Mormonism" had sunk a little too deeply into my soul, and it was not many days before I felt prompted to take that book out and read it, and this time I read right on to the end, and I knew that "Mormonism" was true. — Millennial Star 80:1”
