Went with Edward Martin to bury his child on a high bluff south of the

camp. We buried it between two small oak trees, a little east of them,

the babe's head to the east. After returning Heber sent word for us to

cross the creek to the other bluff where Elder Taylor is camped. We

got some of the cattle together and took part of the wagons over and

then returned for the remainder. As soon as we got there a message came

that the President wished the band to go to the village. We accordingly

started but when we got there we found nobody there and after a little

trading we returned home.
