8th The Presidentcy & 12, & others met in council at the Historians
Office they took up the subject of reading the sermon of president Young
concerning the late emigration & what caused so much sufferings. He
caused cast reflections upon J. Taylors & F. D. Richards as Taylor
had Hendred the brethren from doing business for several weeks
the greatest reflections were cast upon him the Presidency finally
concluded they would strike out those sentences that cast reflection
upon those brethren & print the rest. President Young said to Bishop Hunter
when the Hand Cart Company comes in I want to have the bishops take the
people to some empty Houses & appoint an over seer over them so that
they may not eat themselves to death for they would kill themselves if
they had an oppertunity.
President B Young & council voted that the indignation of the Marshall
of this City rest upon Henry J Jarvis from this time forth H C Kimball
said Hear it O ye Heaven & execute it upon the Earth O ye men of God
I spent most of this day in the office I preached in the 14th ward
on the refermation in the evening
