Mormon History, Apr 15, 1847

[Brigham Young Sermon] About sundown President Young called the brethren together and instructed them to have a care of their teams, and cease all music, dancing and light-mindedness; and instructed them, exhorted them to prayer and faithfulness. He also stated that the traders and missionaries were stirring up the Indians to plunder us of our horses and goods. He said that if we were faithful and obeyed counsel the Lord would bless us and we should pass through safe. -- Winter Quarters, Nebraska [Pioneering the West 1846 to 1878: Major Howard EganÂ's Diary.
