16th I spent the fore part of the day wattering Garden
& cutting up Courant Bushes & the afternoon in
the office I called upon President Young he was
vary cheerful. Brother Kimball had a dream which
He told he dreamed the city was full of Hogs who app[ear]ed
mad they were foaming & frothing at the mouth they
tried to bite him but he found their mouths was tied
up and they could not bite he got up onto a wall to
get away from them & when he come to look
aroungd to see whare they were and he could not
see one in the city they had all gone away vary
suddenly. Furguson said that forty men went out
under Lieut Lee to chastize the Indians from
Fort Bridger President Young said the Indians
will ketch it yet I want Enmity put between the
wicked & the wicked. I do not care one Groat about
the twhores who will go to the armey they will not serve
God or keep his laws and they may Go to Hell. the
people will prove themselves to be either good or
Bad before the Lord
