Sept. 3. An emigrant train passed. I went home and sold them some flour and salt; this company was afterwards massacred at Mountain Meadows. Sept. 8. Was harvesting at Paragoonah when a boy brought me word that Col. Dame wished to see me. Went home at once and Col. Dame informed me that he had word by an Indian that the Indians had attacked the Emigrant company at Mountain Meadows, and he wished me to proceed to Cedar City and ascertain the truth about the matter. Edward Dalton accompanied me. At Cedar City I asked Isaac C. Haight if he had any information about the matter; he had heard the same rumor but had heard nothing further.
