25 I spent most of this day in preparing for the funeral
H S W & the burrial of my child which I buried in the first
lot on the south side of the road after passing through the
west gate of the Burying ground it is the third grave visible
some graves have been dug up in making a road
I spent the evening with the regency with President Young
there were present Brigham Young D. H. Wells O. Hyde
W. Woodruff G. A. Smith E. T. Benson F. D. Richards A.
Carrington W. W Phelps, Hosea Stout, Samuel Richards
G. D. Watt ^&^ R. L. Campbell & Joseph A Young we agreed
upon the arangment of the Alphabet to have it stand perpendiclar
also to print the first Book in the Deseret Alphabet & to print
some in each Number of the Deseret News. President Young
has laboured unceseingly to esstablish the Deseret Alphabet
& have it taught in our schools. Judge Sinclair ruled
that [since] they had sit in court but 7 days instead of nearly 60
that He should not count time ownly while sitting in court
The Deseret News published the procedings of the court
which has made the Judge & his party quite mad.
