22nd Took cars rode to Boston stoped at No 8
East Orange street at Br Jacob Phelps Mrs
Woodruff was taken sick as soon as she got
there went to bed vomited & felt some better
I met with the Church in the evening 8 was
cut off from the Church who had joined
Sidney Rigdon. Sidney Rigdon was cut off
from the Church, for trying to divide the
Church, calling Joseph Smith the fallen
Prophet, & illegally ordaining men to be kings &
Priest unto God when he had not that office
himself he had been in a state of apostacy
for five years, & was now cut off by the
legal authorities of the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter Day Saints and since he has been
cut off he is trying to draw away as many as
he can after him & as fast as their are any
apostitize from the faith they join him & those
that are cut of from the Church & thus he is trying
to build up a party unto himself. The Church now
seems to be be firm in Boston. I had a good time
with them. I spent the night at Br Phelps Mrs
Woodruff seemed much better in the evening
distance of the day 35 m
