Sept 1st 1839 This is the first day of fall Sunday. Elder Taylor felt much better we concluded to
spend the day in the place & preach to the people. It was a german settlement. I deliverd unto
them a discourse on the first principles of the gospel & other subjects Elder Taylor followed
me & spoke untill he was quite exhausted not realizing his bodily weakness, & I became chilled
myself & returned to Mr Waltz Inn & I immediately was taken with a shake of th[e] ague & was followed
by a high fever which lasted me mostly through the night
