[Hosea Stout Diary] Sunday June 13th 1847. Went out with 5 men again.
Attended the council in the evening. An order was passed to keep all cattle out of the corn field & I was instructed to keep or see it executed. All cattle or Horses that were in the field the owner was to pay one dollar each & 25 on sheep[.] The subject of the guard was taken up and an order passed allowing Prest Cutler & myself to keep as many men on guard as we thought proper.
We also heard from the pioneers. They were at the head of Grand Island on the 4th of May and all well.
