Published in Journal of Discourses, Volume 6, pp. 11-18. No date is printed on the discourse or in the volume's front-matter index; no reporter is credited on the printed page. The body itself refers to 'the 24th day of July last' (the 1857 Pioneer Day celebration at Big Cottonwood Canyon, when word of the approaching army reached the camp) in the past tense, so the discourse postdates July 24, 1857; beyond that lower bound, no day or month can be established. date: 1857-10-01 / date_precision: approximate is a nominal placeholder for sorting only, not a claimed delivery date -- see final_review_notes for the exhausted search that concluded the exact date is unrecoverable.
No witness list recorded beyond the primary source.
Ingested; not yet independently reviewed.
