[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 14th I called upon Henry Woodford And Had a few moments of vary plesent conversation with him. There was A hard rain through the day & night And A great body of snow is going off & the Farmington River is rising so fast that it is with difficulty I can get home As the meadows are all coverd with water.
But I bid Mr Woodford farewell And took the last look of the house Hills dales & Brooks of my Nativity whare I was born & spent the days of my youth. I crossed the river over the Acquiduot And wrode home in the midst of A Heavy shower of rain. 10 m.
