[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 2d In company with O. Pratt G A Smith, W Porter & P W Woodruff I repaired to the burying ground with A load of Stones. I went to the upper burying grounds & took up our little boy named Joseph & brought him to the burying ground near Winter Quarters & put him into the grave with Ezra Woodruff.
