[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 10th We Parted with our friends this morning who were going west. They started on their journey & those of us who had not lost Horses divided with those who had & we Harnessed up what teams we had left & travled 16 miles & Camped on the sweet water.
We met the remainder of our Brethren returning from persuing the Horses but did not obtain any more of them. The enemy escaped with 43 of our Horses. We have had A plesant day but vary windy. 16 miles.
