17th Sunday Morning I arose & took breakfast
with Father & Mother it seemed quite natural to
see Father at the Table again Mary seems
Better than she has done. I soon saw sister Foss
coming along & I soon was saluted with the
shake of the hand & a kiss after setting awhile
we all went over to sister Foss. she walked with
me, Father & Mother rode. We had a plesent
time soon Arthur Milliken came & brought
me 14 copeys of the Doctrins & Covenants I
Paid him $4 dollars & if they are sold for $1 each
their will be $10 dollars due to sumbody. I had
a visit from Nathaniel Googin, he seems to be
a spiritual man had some light we spent the
afternoon in conversing about the Latter
day work. He sends his respets to Phebe. I
walked part of the way home with Father I
talked of taking Rhoda Foss home with me
Father said it would be well if I was a mind to
do it. I am quite at a stand dont know what
Phebe will say about it. I returned to sister Foss
& spent the night I conversed with her during
the evening & Blessed her she is strong in
faith & desires to go to Nauvoo & intends soon
to come & make a visit & stay as long as she pleases
& Shuah is not vary well contented down east
had rather come to the west. Their is quite
a western fever in a number of our friends
