the body of brother Grant. I spent the night with his
remains

I left brother Grant's family a short time in
the morning called upon Capt. Hooper found him quite sick and
administered to him. Then I went to my house got a piece of
fine linen and Mrs. Woodruff accompanied me to brother Grant's. I
gave them the linen to make a garment and robes to lay out the
body in. I went to President Young's to get Zina Young
to go down and help make the robes. President Young came
in and spoke of brother Grant's death. He said we had done
all we could to save his life but the powers the other side of the
veil were stronger than we were and he was wanted there

Sister Zina Young walked with me to
President Grant's and spent the day with the sisters in making
the robes. I felt sick and went home and went to bed and
was sick throughout the day

Burial of President Jedediah Morgan Grant
Dec. the 3rd 1856.

I spent most of this day in writing the obituary of J. M. Grant

The doors of our deceased brother's house was
thrown open for the people to visit the corps and preparations
^were made^ for his funeral. Many thousands went through the house
to visit the body. At half past nine the military began
to form in open line from the residence to the Tabernacle and three
bands of music were in attendance. The Lieutenant General and
staff General Grant^'s and staff^ and all the lancers were in attendance and
a company of York masons formed in the procession. The
corps was removed to the Tabernacle and the place filled up and
many could not get in. But it took so long to get through
with the ceremonies of the morning that it was ten minutes
