On October 12, 1867 Wilford Woodruff sealed his son and daughter-in-law. He wrote in his journal,
“I sealed My son Wilford Woodruff Jr and Emily Jane Smith in the Bonds of Matrimony over the Altar, according to the order of God. I called upon the Lord in Earnest Prayer for the Lord to give unto my son a wife who might be a good companion and partner to him through the toils and labors of this life. The Lord heard and answered my prayers, and has given my son one of the Lovely Daughters of Zion who is virtuous & good. May God Bless them.”
