Chapter 15 European Dreams Come True During the winter of 1895-96, I dreamed night after night of being in Scandinavia with Elder Lewis Johnson, and attending camp meetings. Now, as I write these things, I do not wish to set you dreaming, but wish to show that the Lord does sometimes give us instruction in this way. At that time I already had a district assigned me, still I wanted wisdom about it. Also, I had been asked to write a book that would be translated into foreign languages, so I thought perhaps in this way I might go to Scandinavia. But I dreamed of attending camp-meetings, and the first one was held in a building instead of in tents. "Where are your tents?" I asked in my dream. They replied, "We have a commodious hall in town where we will hold the meetings." "But where is your lodging house?" 240
"O, it's off in that direction a little ways, and a very good place." The I dreamed of attending a second campmeeting, but upon going there found that this was not a camp-meeting either. They explained, "We could not get a place for a camp." We then went into a meeting-house, and found that it was constructed with boards running vertically instead of horizontally. Afterwards, I dreamed of going to a third meeting where we got into a boat, and after twisting around through a narrow channel, reached a wider body of water, then over a strip of land into another lake, and then on to the church where the meeting was held. When I attended the council meetings during the spring of 1896, and they made arrangements about the different fields, not a word was said about my going to Scandinavia, so I said to myself, "I'll just write that book as well as I can." But soon afterwards came a letter from Elder O. A. Olsen saying, "We want you to go to Scandinavia. 241
