arrived in Cedar City on July 1st with his wife and children. While traveling, the Indians stole a cow and two calves from him and wounded two others. Since he and his family made the trip alone, Henry stated: "A very thoughtless foolish piece of business for one man to come alone. He will learn better another time--very well it was no worse with him." Henry's journal entry on July 8, 1852 follows: F i e day, very warm. Labored at the Iron Works hauling rock in the forenoon, and in the afternoon sawing with a whip saw. Traded my wagon to Brother Adshead for 4000 adobes, payable in one month. Took a walk in the evening with Brother Whittaker and his wife and my wife in the field. My heart was made to rejoice in seeing my wheat look so well. Truly said I, 'The Lord hath blessed my crops and thelabor by my hands. Praise be His holy name.' The crops in general look much better than those at Parowan did last year. The water ditches do not wash so much now and everything seems to go on more prosperous since the Iron Works have been commenced. It shows that when saints do what they were sent to do, the Lord prospers them and the labor of their hands.
