[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 19th The company was to start at 4 oclock to go to Nephi to Breakfast. Some of the waggons started out at that hour. T Bullock J C Wright myself & others started out at 4 oclock to walk thinking that our waggons would soon be along but they did not start till 2 hours afterwards. We walked 7 mils and it was so exceding Cold in the snow & on So high an altitude that we thought we should freeze. So we stoped in a patch of Greeseweed & struck a fire & staid by it 2 Hours before the waggons came up. Several frooze their feet & fingers.
When we arived at Nephi we were thoroughly Chilled through. We got warm took dinner & rode to Pason & spent the night [with] Brother Hancock Bishop. We rode 45 miles to day. Lorenzo Snow & myself J. M. Grant & J. C. Little & Ladies spent the night at Brother Israel Calkins. He charged us all 50 cts per meal & 25 for lodging. (3)
