[Hosea Stout Diary] Sunday July 11th 1847. Meeting at the stand. O. Hyde spoke on religion & religious subjects.
The council met in the evening. Blazzards case up again & council decided to have an execution taken out from the Clerk of the council in all such cases & property taken when men would not comply with the law without.
The subject of the Picket guard was had up today as was before spoken of by President Cutler[.] It seemed news to most of the Councillors & I could not but wonder who Daniel Russell had been consulting with as he had said on the subject for surely it seemed now to be the first time any of them had considered it & all with one consent declared in favor of keeping the guard out and gave me orders accordingly.
