Joseph Smith directs Church members to stop proxy baptisms in Mississippi River, wait for completion of Nauvoo Temple font.
19th We left Br Clarks to return to Nauvoo with
a load of goods we left our cows for a season as
they did not give milk we had some difficulty
in crossing the ferry in consequence of the wind
it took 3 skiff loads to carry us & our things over
I then took them in a waggon & carried them
to our house I was sick But I felt to rejoice to
spend a night with my family under a roof of my
own it being the first time that I have ever
injoyed such a privilege since we were married [FIGURE]
