Found this at an estate sale in orange county, California. It's from the 1893 Chicago world's columbian exposition/ world fair. I have found some online that sell for around 250-300 but this one is framed with the original paperwork/packaging. from the manufacturer, Phoenix Silk Manufacturing Co. Wondering if the paperwork increases the value? Any other info about this item would also be appreciated.

Was there a celebration, north or south?
This time is 7 min to 830 min in the talk.

On a secondary topic it would be great if our prophets to reveal new revelation besides say the scriptures don't say much and don't trust your personal experiences as church doctrine.
All around a painful talk from oaks.
On the Atomists of Arixo: "When they wish to torture people, they strip them naked, expose them to the poisonous reactors they worship, and amuse themselves watching the victim suffer a slow death as they worship their false atomic gods... The realms of the Hopi and Navajo are now dismembered by them and deprived of territory so vast in extent that it cannot be traversed in a march of two months.
On going to battle as faithful Mormons: "Let this then be your rallying cry in battle, because this word is given to you by God, Christ, and the angel Moroni. When the heathens are under attack, let this one slogan be raised by all the Latter Day Saints: It is the will of Moroni! The will of Moroni!"
On spreading the message of the Provo Proclamation: "I, or rather the angel Moroni, beseech you to spread this message everywhere and to persuade all people of any rank, high and low, poor and rich, to come to the aid of our fellow Saints and to destroy the atom worshiping sons of perdition from the lands of our friends. I say this to those who are present, it is meant also for those who are absent. Moreover, Moroni commands it!"
After the Proclamation, King Amos and his vassals pledged themselves to an "Expedition" to reclaim Arixo from the Atomists and restore the realms of the Hopi and Navajo, Native American tribes that had adapted Mormonism in the 2300s. Thus began nearly a hundred and fifty years of Mormon wars to expand and defend their faith, with the Kingdom of Deseret at the vanguard.
