In addition to the water problems, the cattle were destrovine the wheat because of inadeauate fences. President , Smith gave notice that, beginning Saturday, all the men in the camp would be reauired to build and repair the fences around the fields. The settlers needed a road built from Red Creek to Coal Creek, so on June 2, the court appointed a County Commissioner and a Supervisor of Roads, and they were instructed to locate a suitable route. The following journal entries were written by George A. Smith:
-
Monday, June 9, 1851: General cattle drive. Brother Goodale had an ox come up badly shot with arrows. The heads of two cattle were found and quite a number of cattle were missing, also a horse. Wednesday, June 11: Called the brethren together and advised them to gather their horses and loose cattle and to put them in the general herd or they would be liable to be stolen or killed by the Indians. Thursday, June 12: Several Parvine Indians came into camp this morning with a letter from John D. Lee who had left earlier in the week for Salt Lake. They also brought a horse taken by them from the Utes which the Utes had stole from Brother Bozarth in the spring. They said the horse's mate had been killed and eaten by the Utes. Brother Bozarth paid the Indians for bringing the horse. The weather had been very warm and dry with temperatures over 90 degrees, and the water in the creeks was getting low. The men began investigating ways to dig canals fiom Center Creek, Red Creek, and Summit Creek to water their crops. A company of twenty wagons arrived in Parowan on Friday, June 27, 1851, bringing the families of some of the men who had been sent with the first company. They brought letters and newspapers to most of the settlers. Brother Pugmire brought a package and some letters to George A. Smith.
