[William Clayton]
...Hyrum and I rode up to my house and Joseph met Mrs. W[oo]d[wor]th and F[lora] [JS's 17-year-old plural wife, who had just married another man after Emma made her give back Joseph's gift of a gold watch] and conversed some time...President Joseph and I walked from my house to Sister [Elizabeth] Durfee's [plural wife of Joseph Smith] and thence to his house.
