Mark Austin of Sugar City, Idaho gave me and my son George Albert one hundred dollars each. (1)

[Joseph Smith Diary] 27th Sunday morning, 27th At the us[u]al hour attended meeting at the School house. President Cowdery delivered a verry able and interesting discourse. In the after part of the day Br[other] Hyrum Smith and Bishop Partri[d]ge delivered each a short and /interesting/ lecture, after which the Sacrament of the Lord's supper /was administered/ and dismissed our meeting.
Those Gentlemen that proposed to have an interview with me on this morning did not come and I conclude they were trifling characters. (3)
