I kept a record of the sealings, anointings, marriages, and adoptions. Also, I was the second son adopted of Brigham. I should have been his first adopted son, being the first who proposed it to him, but, ever ready to give preference to those in authority, I placed Brother Rockwood's name first on the list. I had also had my children adopted to me in the Temple.
I have here a brief history of her labors among the Tuscaroras, from her own writings, which is very interesting, to wit: MISS M. J. F. THAYER'S LABORS AS A MISSIONARY TEACHER. At the invitation of Rev. Rockwood's house, receiving from the American Board one dollar and fifty cents per week, besides her board. There were but few scholars, and these were very irregular in their attendance.

"Well, to the lake we went. The day was very hot, and our path lay through the woods, and over those scorching plains, for eight long miles.
With the end of the play the carriage was driven on. Shortly before supper-time that evening Clara went to the drug-store to buy some stamps. One of the Misses Rockwood was standing by the show-case waiting for the clerk to wrap up a bottle. Clara noted the scantily trimmed hat and the scuffed gloves. She nodded in response to Miss Rockwood's bow. They had met but once.
