Have a big boil on my temple & my right eye is swelled nearly shut. being out in the heat makes it swell worse & walking hurts it, so I have kept rather quiet today & walked slowly. Opened the boil tonight, it ran well & feels better. A hot day. The town is more quiet than usual as the people have mostly gone to Ogden & Salt Lake to celebrate. The few men in town are mostly drunk. July 5 Went out early & killed 6 more Tamias lateralis, this makes 36. Skinned them & rolled them all up snugly in papers. Did some writing & got ready to leave. Started down the slope at 5 P.M. & reached Salt Lake City at 7. The P.O. was closed I could not find anyone. A warm day. Salt Lake is full of people.
