[Hosea Stout Diary] Monday January 4th 1847. This morning I went to Dr Richards to get the minutes of the council of last Friday night as I was then unable to attend council While there President Young spoke to me to go in his company in the Spring which I agreed to.
While there I also learned that Elders Hyde & Taylor while on their way to England came very near being wrecked. They saw three vessels wrecked in the midst of the Ocean & they saved half of those in one vessel another ship taking in the rest.
I issued orders again to the Treasurer for 87 dollars for the police & regulated guard as usual.
