Mormon History, Jul 4, 1847. Sunday.

[William Clayton Journal] ...Some of the brethren assembled for meeting in the circle. At half after 2 P. M. the brethren returned from the ferry accompanied by 12 of the Pueblo brethren from the army. They have got their discharge and by riding hard over-taken us. They feel well and on arriving in camp gave three cheers after which President Young moved that we give glory to God which was done by hosannas. William Walker was with them . . .
