15^th I met in council with the Twelve at Br Bensons and
conversed about the organizing of the Camp of Israel
the time has now come when the Camp of Israel must be
organized according to the order and law of God for there
peace, safety, and salvation There are many things of Interest
transpire in the councils of the Twelve Apostles which I do
not write in this Journal as Elder Willard Richards is
presant at the councils, and is the recorder and historian of
the Church and writes all these things which will appear in
the general Church History. There was a severe snow storm
this day. At night I went into the Council House with President
Young & several Bishops and made doors and plastered up
the House and worked untill near midnight
