Mormon History, Sep 8, 1847

[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 8th A Cold morning but it soon grew warm & the snow melted away. We Parted with the Camp & rode 12 miles & Camped on the sweet water with Br J. M. Grants Hundred. I dined with Br Neff & family & saw many I was acquainted with. 12 m.
Br J M Grant had buried one Child on the way & his wife lay at the point of death.
We held a council in the evening & herd brother Grant related the circumstances of the organization of the companies which was not according to the former organization. Br Young said He was more & more Convinced that there was A wrong with P. P. Pratt & John Taylor in these things. We also Herd Br Grant relate his interview with Col Kane which was interesting to us. He has the spirit of the Lord with him & is doing for us what He can. Thomas Benton is an inveterat enemy & doing what He Can against us. Many things of interest was spoken off. 12 m.
