[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 27th I recieved the New York Herald weekly of 27th. It is full of the Calafornia gold fever. It seems as though All the world was running stark mad to go to the gold mines of Calafornia on the Sacramento. Hundreds of ships And tens of thousand of men are preparing to go there.
