While Anthon H. Lund was visiting a branch in Germany, a young lady who attended a meeting with the preacher's wife recognized Elder Lund from a dream she had previously experienced. This event made a deep impression on both women, and the young lady, her mother, and two brothers were later baptized.
Fuller account of this event (the complete account as preserved in The Latter-day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 57, No. 40, 3 October 1895, p. 635):
While in Berlin, Elder Lund was invited to attend a meeting at the house of a lady who was interested in the Gospel. A young lady who was present, and who had never seen Elder Lund before, recognized him immediately as a person she had seen in a dream some time previous. This made a deep impression upon her and her mother, and they, with two brothers, have since been baptized.
In Their Own Words
“When I was here last year a young lady and this preacher’s wife attended our meeting. The former told the latter before they came that she had seen me in a dream. After they had taken seats she told the preacher’s wife that she knew me from her dream. It made a strong impression on them both. The girl has been baptized since then and also her mother and two brothers. — Millennial Star 57:40”
