were 35 families at this place and Charles Hubbard was its
Bishop. Their Fort was laid out half a mile long 70 rods
wide with a wall to be built around it, 70 rods of which was then 6 feet high
They had raised 12,000 bushels of wheat. They were very
deficient in Schools and had not but 3 months good schooling
for three years. The Bishop was very anxious to obtain
a good teacher
Next day I went to Box Elder and preached
in the evening at the School House. This place contained
60 families and brother Davis was their Bishop. The
majority of the people were mostly Welsh and Danish
and mostly poor. There was but little wheat raised
by them this year. The Bishop had on hand 20
tons of tithing hay and 15 bushels of wheat. They had
no school that Winter. Their fort wall was laid
out 200 rods long enclosing a fort 100 rods wide
The wall was to be built of stone 3 1/2 feet thick at the
bottom and 2 feet at the top and 8 feet high. It was
in the progress of erection
I returned revisited the settlements on my
way home and reached Great Salt Lake City .
Next day was Sunday. Charles C Rich
addressed the assembly in the Tabernac[l]e and gave an account
of the rise and progress of the settlement of San Barnadino.
