Mormon History, Sep 17, 1848

[Hosea Stout Diary] Sunday Sept 17th 1848. Went to the Weber & crossed over to day. One of Hoaglunds oxen was dead this morning which left us very weak for teams. Our road was uncommonly bad to day having to cross the creek many times.
We overtook Br Arnold to night & nearley all the camp who had waiter here for the President to come.
This evening the President passed on some three miles and encamped in a small branch up which he had to ascend the next mountain.
