Communication from the east to the extern seaboard were Intercepted. and fears were even entertained at Washington 'that some of the European nation, who were seemingly ready to aid the Southern confederacy might take it into their heads to send a war vessel or two to bombard. destroy and take possession of,our defenseless wait on the Pacific. Under the circumstances it seemed an Imperative necessity to keep open the mail and telegraph lines over the plains for the safety of the Union cause. Accordingly,orders were issued from Washington through Secy. of War etanton. for Col Collins of the western division of the Union army to establish headquarters at the junction of the North and South Platte rivers. and a telegram was sent to Brigham Young from President Lincoln, directing the muster into the service of the 100 rough riders as cavalry. These States united troops were to be armed and equipped for service of 9(I days and were to march eastward till they should meet Col. Collins' command, then receive orders from him. The duty of the command was to drive from the lines of travel and communication tba maraading bands ,41 the mail and telegraph stations and linen already destroyed. and...prevent any further depredations of this character. The broad territory assigned to the patrol of the Utah volunteers consisted of all that country over which the mall and telegraph lines passed from the North Platte on the east to old Fort Hall on the nerthwest for over this extensive region passed and repassed the murdering bawd" of red men.

Coasting and sleighr.ding were popular, as will be seen by the reminiscences of klfortraid--- - 4eatures,-wers7 m exercises opening and closing with prayer. The happy memories of these parties, and of the theatricals given in the same building, are a gratification to me to this day. We girls spent many of our "at home" evenings knitting stockings. making 1,atchwork quilts. !mitts. and paring apples and peaches to dry for winter use, while our mothers and the older members of the family would read or recite poems. sing songs. Or tell us of their own childhood and of the early days of our people in Kirtland. Nauvoe, and Winter Quarters. and of their journey here. We never tired of listening. and were really sorry when bed time came nod the paring and the narratives had to be postponed to another evening. Boys and girls were enabled to attend ehont only about (Our months each year and the reA of the time they had to work on the farms. Yor this reason and because our idie hours were fPW and far between, we enjoyed such amusements as came to us with a genuine zest. Those) were good old days. but we are now SO spoiled by a superfluity of amumements and so pampered by modern conveoiences that I doubt our ability to ever resurrect and enjoy them again.
