175 years ago today - Oct 8, 1841

[Apostle Wilford Woodruff]
8th I am quite undecided which way to turn or whare to settle myself. The temporal business of the Church is laid upon the hands of the Twelve. It has been thought best by some of our quorum for me to go to warsaw with Elder Richards.

Sister Kimball deliverd to us all the things which I had sent to Phebe from England by Elder Turley which were left in her hands. I Paid R Cahoon $5 dollars for Dwight Webster for the house of the Lord.

On looking over all my accounts & expenses from New York to Nauvoo & I found that all the expenses Aug in New York to the 8th oct. in Nauvoo amounted in all to $238.21 cts.

I met in conference with the Twelve & among other business they voted that I should locate myself in Nauvoo. I looked over my accounts with Sister Nelson & she is indetted to me $1 dollar.
