Mormon History, Aug 30, 1847

[Brigham Young Sermon] President Young called the brethren together this evening for organization'-President Young selected his ten, which included six of the Twelve...it was moved that we travel in order, after we had thus organized. Brother Young advised the brethren to gather up their horses and tie them, as it was his intention to start as early as 6 o'clock in the morning, which we accordingly did. -- SLC Bowery [Pioneering the West 1846 to 1878: Major Howard EganÂ's Diary.
