[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 3d I swaped my gun with Br Amasa Lyman for a rifle. We spent a little time shooting our guns.
We met in council in the evening with the Twelve & H[igh] C[ouncil] at 5 oclok. O Pratt was Called upon to report there visit to the Otoes & Omaho's. He reported that the Otoes would not give a decision untill they came to the camp & gave a dance. The Omaho's wanted also to come & give a war dance on their way to war with the Sioux. The report was excepted. President B. Young made report of our Journey North which was also satisfactory. We had a rain during the night.
