Mormon History, May 9, 1847

[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 9th Sunday As we had no feed around us we took up our teams & passed across the Bluffs 4 miles & camped for the day. I wrote 2 letters one to Br Ferguson & the other to Br Bevin for Br Wolley to take with him to Purbelo.
We had a meeting & a good one. The spirit of God rules over the camp. Peace quietnes & contentment seems to pervade almost evry Breast.
The Twelve met & thought it best for the Brethren not to start to Pueblo untill they arive at Laramey. In the evening I rode with the Twelve & others 4 miles up the river & returned. We saw large Herds of Buffalo come to there watering places to drink, some geese, cranes & one Pole Cat. 8 miles.
