"the next day we heard that P P Pratt had arrived from England"
***********
Brigham was happy to hear that Elder Pratt was returning so he could get his equipment he needed for the trek.
Parley P Pratt and John Taylor were to be in charge of things at Winter Quarters and be in the company of pioneers in a couple of months.
Brigham needed to give them final instructions and would go back to Winter Quarters to finish up business.
Parties of pioneers were leaving Winter Quarters a few at a time and they were all going to join up at the Elkhorn River.
The main party Charles was with were up ahead getting things ready for those who were coming.
