Mormon History, Sep 3, 1847 (Friday)

A few days later the soldiers were met by Samuel Brannan, James Brown and others, on the Truckee river. Brannan brought word from Pres. Brigham Young for those who had no means of subsistence to remain in California and work during the winter, and come to the Valley in the spring. About half of the company then returned to California.
