Autobiography Volume 1 circa 1842-1865
On the I left brother Ebenezer Ames
with Elder James Townsend for Searsmount and Elder Hall [Ball] was
to return to the Island. The roads were drifted with snow
and the people feared we could not get through but we
went forward in the Lord. The winds were high and
the air was filled with snow. We broke the roads for
seven miles and three of it was across a pond. We reached
our destination at 2 o'clock p.m. and was kindly entertained
by Mr H. Richards.
