ABSTRACT

ON the way from Ogden to Salt Lake a singulal' piece of good fortune befcHus. 1\'11'. Hooper, the Utah delegate in Congress, came down with us.

When the train got in, we found that Brigham Young, many of his elders and chief officers, and their wives and daughters, had come up from Salt Lake City to welcome 1\'11'. Hooper, and accompany him home. They, with their band and singers, filled two cars, and by the intervention of 1\'11'. Hooper, another car, containing the party of which r was a member, was taken on as part of this train. We had hardly started, in this special train, when 1\'11'. Hooper asked us all into 1\'11'. Young's cal', and we were presently introduced to what somebody called" all the nobility" of Salt Lake.
