July 18th Sunday. Had a good night. I dressed this morning and drove up
to the office this afternoon and staid about 3/4 of an hour at my desk looking over
some papers I wished to see. drove around the Temple Block, by the Monument
& down Main street home. I received a copy of the Pioneer Programme and
read some of it, from which I felt outraged in my feelings and in the evening
expressed myself vigorously as to the manner I have been treated. I am one
of the first and oldest pioneers which with my position in the church
should entitle me to some consideration. Not one of my sons or any of my
family have been asked to take any part in the pioneer proceedings, whilst the
Clawsons and their friends and associates are into everything. I felt like
sending for Bro Spencer Clawson so as to free my mind, but concluded to wait
until after the Jubilee & then express myself. My wife Emma Dr Snow & Bro Nuttall
were with me when I talked of these matters. I learned that Judge Kinney
was now in the city, and I requested Bro Nuttall to find him & bring him to
see me tomorrow. Bro. Nuttall staid with me tonight.
