Mormon History, Aug 23, 1847. Monday.

[William Clayton Journal] We started early this morning and arrived at Fort Bridger at 1 o'clock. We found the grass pretty much eat off and only stayed an hour and a half while some of the brethren traded some, then went on 8 miles farther and camped on a stream 2 rods wide, having traveled 21 1/2 miles, the day very cool. . .
