Excerpt from The Contributor, Vol. 4: A Monthly Magazine of Home Literature; April, 1883
On the i3th of April, 1836, Brother Grant started upon his mission, going to New York State, where he. Preached a great deal in many places and raised up a branch of the Church at Fallsburg, baptizing twenty-three persons, among them his brother Austin. He returned to Kirtland on the 6th of March, 1837, and remained until the sixth of the f ollow ing June when he commenced a mission ary tour to the south - the field in which his greatest missionary labors and achievements we're accomplished. He passed through the States of Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, etc., and reached North Carolina, where he labored as siduously, proclaiming the Gospel in court houses, chapels and other places of assembly as frequently as circum stances permitted. He became exten sively known and acquired considerable fame, as an adroit scriptorian and de bater, in certain discussions held with Methodist divines whom he never feared nor declined to meet. His uniform suc cess in overthrowing their sophistry and false theology by the forcible and con clusive way he presented the truth, won many friends and some converts. On the conclusion of this mission he re turned to Kirtland and made prepara tions for final removal to Missouri.
