David Whitmer (1887): "We were in the spirit when we had the view...but we were in the body also"

Of course we were in the spirit when we had the view, for no man can behold the face of an angel, except in a spiritual view, but we were in the body also, and everything was as natural to us, as it is at any time.[1]
