Mon Ap 25th At the office, recd a letter from M[adam] Mountford. I expressed my
feelings in regard to Bro B. Youngs remarks at the Tabernacle yesterday
as being unwise, as we are now a State & must take part either in peace or war
and requested John Q Cannon to write a piece for publication in the Deseret News
expressing my feelings, which he did. Congress passed a bill today declaring
war with Spain. I went home at 2 pm. to arrange for my grandson
Eugene to start for his home at Vernal this evening.
