Mormon History, Apr 21, 1847

[Brigham Young Sermon] President Young moved that 100 men should be called out. One half standing one half the night and the other half the other half the night. Colonel Markham then called upon all those who would volunteer to step out one side which was done, and they were soon arranged in companies of 100 with a captain of each. -- Looking Glass Creek, Nebraska [Horace K.
