Mormon History, Aug 4, 1848

[Hosea Stout Diary] Frid Aug. 4th 1848. Went on to the Upper Ford of the North Fork and encamped. Here were several from the Valley who had come to meet us & had been also ferrying the Oregon Emegrants over the Platte. There was good grass here when we first came.but the immense herds of all the camp soon consumed it all and left our cattle in a suffering condition.
