Mother of Samuel Whetton's divine promise of protection

“When I was nine years old, my father was taken away from home suffering with an acute case of smallpox. Two of my father's brothers had died from the effects of this same disease. My mother, who was an ardent believer in prayer, gathered her children around her and poured out her soul in humble prayer to God for the protection of her loved ones. While she was praying, she heard a voice quite audible, which said, 'Fear not, daughter of Zion. This plague shall not come near thy dwelling.' This promise was literally fulfilled. My father was restored and returned home to us.— Millennial Star 86:16”
