Journal Entry

February 21, 1854 ~ Tuesday

21st I spent the day in the Counsel House Elder Kimball ^Taylor^
delivered a long and interesting address in the evening among
his remarks he said when strong drink or any evil thing
brings a man down from his dignity to a brute it has no power
to exhalt him I spent the evening with the 12 ward {President Young was in the Council House this day.}
