[Hosea Stout Diary] Sunday Decr 28th 1845. To day I was home all day sick and in the evening met the police and from thence to the Hall to a company meeting
I laid before the company the necessity of increasing the guard which was according to instructions I had received from B. Young.the company all agreed to it and all reported ready to go the next day except a few whom we reserved to carry on the waggon business.So by this move all business in the company was suspended in consequence of the cursed rascality of a legalized mob sent here to vex us by our Govenor.About 9 oclock I came home.
