[Brigham Young Sermon] President Young called the captains together and gave them the following instructions. At 8:30 pm the bugle would sound and all should retire to their wagons and bow down before the Lord and offer up their supplications before going to bed, and all fires should be put out. Also the bugle would sound at 5 am when all would arise and offer up their thanks to the Lord, and at 7 o'clock be ready to start. All the spare hands were to walk by the off side of their wagon with their rifles loaded. -- Winter Quarters, Nebraska [Pioneering the West 1846 to 1878: Major Howard EganÂ's Diary. Howard R.
