Mormon History, Jul 31, 1845, Thursday

[William Clayton Writings] Thursday 31st. At the office recording. At 4 P.M. met at Dr Richards with Prest B. Young, H.C. Kimball, W. Richards, J. Taylor, A. Lyman, G.A. Smith, N.K. Whitney, G. Miller, J. Young & L. Richards. It was decided in council that the Nauvoo House committee get tithing teams to haul their wood, and grain from the country. Also that they have 2000 feet of Lumber from the Trustees, also that they collect all the scaffolding poles and take them to the Nauvoo House. A letter was written to the Temple Committee rebuking them for abusing brother Reese and teaching them their duty. During the conversation brother Miller insulted brother Whitney very meanly. Brother Whitney felt angry but governed his feelings and merely said he felt above such insinuations. Prayers were offered for a number of the sick and for several other general subjects.
