[Hosea Stout Diary] Thurs Feb 24th 1848. Was around to enlist more help to clean guns as the police were getting tired of their job, as well they might.
Today we got up the idea of making up a party and all who would put a gun in good order might come. They finding everything. This work was committed to E. Gardner & R. Stevens. Such was the dancing fever that they soon had as many at work as the police could superintend.
