On the 13th of July we were organized at Florence, Forty five waggons under C. A. Madsen as captain, and H[ans]. C. Hansen as sergeant of the guard.
On the 14th of July we started from Florence. I had half a waggon with brother Jens C. Christensen Poel and each of us had two oxen. We were 9 persons to the waggon (viz. I with wife and daughter, and Else Jeppesen, Jens C. C. Poel with wife and son; and Jens C. Kornum [Cornum] and wife). 
On the 15th of July we were devided into tens, and I was made captain of the first 8th waggons and continued to act as clerk and treasurer for the company.
The company numbered 264 persons, having 45 waggons, of which 5 were drawn by 12 horses, and the 40 waggons by 174 oxen. Besides this we had 2 riding – horses, 99 cows, 37 heifers, and 7 calves.
On the 25th of August died sister Thomine Thomsen (about 20 years old.) from Nidstrup Wensyssel Conference, the only death that accured between Florence and Salt Lake City, in our company. We were very lucky on this long journey of 1000 miles, as the company did not loose over 10 head of cattle. We had fine weather all the time except a couple of days soon after starting, and a couple of days at Fort Bridger.
