Wednesday April the 22nd 1846. The weaher was warm, sultry with a damp heavy air & broken cluds Earley thismorning the camp commenced moving. At 8 o'clock and just as we were going to start Louisa was taken sick and delivered of a daughter and we calle its name Louisa. This was my first born in the wilderness as some of the old prophets once said and from the situation of our dwelling might be called a "Prairie chicken". We did not go to day in consequence of her being confined but herded our cattle as usual when we did not travil.
Hosea Stout's journal about her death:
Thursday Augt 5th 1847. Sent out 5 men on guard & staid at home.
Louisa, now my only child, who had been sick for a long time died today which seemed to complete the dark curtain which has een drawn over me since I left Nauvoo. My family then cosisted of 8 member & now but two." Five of whom has died & now I am left childless but I shall not dwell on this painful subect.
Friday Aug 6th 1847. Sent 4 men out on Guard & staid in to attend to the burial of my child.
