Journal number four

I hope I remember where I was one the last entery. After we left Masa Arizona we went to Huricain for six months this is where I go going to the LDS Church. I think I was in the last year of primary. I was really liking it. I didn't at this time go to church yet because I didn't have anybody to encurage me yet. I do remember that I liked school. I would never miss school because I liked it so well . I guess I say this because I see some of my grandkids making some excuse to not to have to go to school. I can remember that I had kids teese me and throw rocks at me when I was going to school in Short Creek Arizona but that didn't make me not like school. I remember one year when we were going to school in Short Creek I was picked to run the arrons for the teacher and I had to go a long ways because we hat to go clear across the creek where it was in the Utah side of the town that is called Hills Dail now. I even remember when we would go out to recess and the kids would not let me play on the slide or the swings but I didn't want to stay home from school . I guess I am saying you need to forget these things and simply go to school. Now getting back to Huricain. Like I said we stayed there six months. We then moved to Salt Lake City. I don't remember the address but I think it was Lindin Av but not sure . I don't remember how long we stayed there it was probably a year. Then we moved to another house and was there for about three years. These were all in the same arrea. This was the house we lived when Dad came home one nnight and told us that we needed to go the Elco Nevada because the law was going to come and take us away from him. That night we packed the car us and left. There was six of us kids and they had the car packed up to almost the top of the car and us kids layed acrossed the top of all the cloths and beding . We were scared because of just what had happened to us when they had the raid that summer. We were there for half of the summer while Dad devorsed aunt Esther which was Dads second wife and Married Mom legeal. Then Dad thinking that he was still in the llime light of the law took us to Mexico where Dads sister-in-law liked. I am not really sure how she was really related to us but that is as close as I can come. We stayed there for the rest of the summer. Dad wanted to leave me down there but I was a little scared because an old man was looking at me and I didn't know what was going on. I was interested in a younger boy and I liked he really a lot but I was more scared of this older man and I would not stay down there even though we didn't have much room . We come back to the house that we were living in when he came that night and took us to Nevada. Dad told us kids that we should stay home from school but I told Mom thad I was not staying home from school because I liked school so well.
