Summary
Reports that Judge Eckles and General Johnston had affidavits showing that the Mormons had purchased artillery pieces and placed them in Salt Lake City. Comments that he had dinner with the governor and declined an invitation from the governor's wife to meet Mormon women, as he considers them no better than professional women in a bawdy house.
