[Hosea Stout Diary] Thurs Apl 20th 1848. Calkins came here to day & says that Mr Long, his son in-law has been baptized.
This evening I changed my plan of guarding as the citizens were moving over the river[.] I adopted the plan of calling on those who are going West to guard. The town I divided into Beats & appointed a policeman to each Beat to detail a guard which relieved me as I could not attend to it all now in my hurry of business.
