Wilford Woodruff's Record of Speaking in Tongues (Adamic/Pure Language)

In his journal entry for February 3, 1854, Wilford Woodruff recorded the following example of speaking in tongues:

 

During the evening Sisters Whitney & Eliza Snow called upon us and spent the evening. We talked over the days of Kirtland & other times. I red over several of the old sermons of Joseph not recorded any whare ownly in my Journal. We spent a plesant evening.

 

Before they left Sister Whitney sung in tongues in the pure language which Adam & Eve made use of in the garden of Eden. This gift was obtained while in Kirtland through the promise of Joseph. He told her if she would rise upon her feet (while in a meeting) she should have the pure Language. She done so and immediately commenced singing in that language. It was as near heavenly music as any thing I ever herd.
