[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 7th Crossed the ferry early in the morning And returned to the Camp of Israel quite weary. We commencd getting juice out of the grape. We got out about 20 gallons of juice for wine, And met in Council with the Twelve. Almon Babit one of the Temple Trustees was present with us wishing some council in regard to the affairs of Nauvoo. He and square Picket brought a large Number of exchange papers Containing the news from various parts of the United States. We herd it rumcured that Br R Hed-lock had borrowed $7,000 dollars on the credit of the Church and fled to parts Unknown. Many things were talked over during Council.
