[Wilford Woodruff] 8th I performed one of the worst days work of my life to day. I Cleaned out a Privey vault 10 feet long 6 feet wide & 8 feet deep & with an Indian Boy dug another vault of the same size 10 rods from the privey & carried all the Contents of the Privey in Buckets by hand & Emptied into the new vault.
