Thursday, June 4

Again sent the men hunting cattle. The day was very cold and windy,

almost as cold as winter. I spent the day fixing a wagon for Diantha

expecting her on in about two weeks. Lucy Walker called in this

afternoon and expressed sorrow on account of the treatment of Heber's

family toward her. Amos Fielding called on his way to the President's

camp. Towards evening it rained and there was one of the most beautiful

rainbows I ever saw in my life. We could see its brilliant reflection

within a few rods of us. In the evening Douzett came for his cow which

had tarried with ours. He concluded to stay over night. My teamsters

returned without finding the cattle.
