passage for Keokuck on the and in the evening from thence took
passage on board the Lucy Bertram for St. Loouis where we arrived
the next day
On Sunday I met with the St Louis Branch of the Church
over which N. H. Felt presided. There was a large congregation
present and Orson Hyde addressed them ^upon the subject of the resurrection^ in the morning and I spoke
to them in the afternoon
I spent the Monday in St. Louis and in the
evening took cabin passage with my family on board the Herald and
arrived at Lasselle two days later
From thence next day I hired a man
to carry myself and family to brother Luther Scammans 2 1/2 miles
North of Lost Grove in Lamoile Bureau Co. Illinois. We found
him and ^our sister my wife's sister^ Rhoda and their family all well but our little daughter
who had been sick for some days was suffering much through the
journey and grew worse. Two days afterwards she died.
