170 years ago today - Dec 11, 1847

[Hosea Stout]
Sixteen of our Brethren who went in the army returned today from the valley.

They had an uncommon hard time. Suffered extreemly with cold and hunger,Was detained ten days at the Loup fork by floating ice. They report more on the way. All was well in the valley.
