So much snow this year, the big red and green sleigh was brought out and "Chuck and Charlie" were hooked up. The visitors and missionaries loved going to 'Inspiration Point' and going past 'King Follets' well. The old song of "A horse knows the way to carry the sleigh" was really true this year. What a beautiful country side. E/S Williams enjoyed the sleigh ride this day. S/Williams loves her warm furry hood.
Feb. 4, 1846. The Saints leaving Nauvoo, heading West ward. Pass the Temple and down Parley Street, "The Trail of Hope", past the Memorial of Joseph and Brigham statue. S/Williams had the Draper family that she walked for. E/Williams and the teamsters hooked up 5 iron wheeled wagons 12 head of horses and 1 black team and buggy for Brigham Young. The teamsters number 13 right now in the winter time. They work hard and in cold weather.
