[Apostle Willard Richards Journal] Mt. Pisgah. George Langly returned from Garden Grove 10 minutes before 2 a.m. Pleasant. Brother Calhoun wished President Young to take charge of his wife Lucinda and three children, and he would resign all right and title to them forever as he and his wife could not live happily together. [At 11:30] 11½, Presidents Young and Richards and E. T. Benson and J. C. Little and Father Huntington, C. C. Rich, and the escort rode to Father CutlerÂ's, calling at Captain Davis' camp by the way, where President Young addressed the camp and dined. The Presidency, escort, and Brother Little left for the Bluffs at 20 minutes to 3 p.m. [At] 8 minutes to 6, bated on the prairie. Rode till 12 midnight, and stopped at Brother BeanÂ's encampment, four or five miles west of Bramble Hill. Traveled about 33 miles. Young and Kimball sat in the carriage, some lay in BeanÂ's tent, and some on the ground.
