Recollections of the Mountain Meadow Massacre
-
Plano, California
-
F.W. Reed, Printer
-
"The Mountain Meadow massacre which took place in Southern Utah in the fall of 1857 was undoubtedly one of the most fiendish outrages ever committed in the United States, or within the civilized world; here a whole train of emigrants, about one hundred and thirty men, women, and children, were most brutally massacred by the Mormon, assisted by Indians.
This emigrant train was from Carrol County Arkansas. The writer of this history was raised in the same County and state, and many of the victims of the foul crome has been old schoolmates of his.
I have long wanted to write the true facts in the history of the cruel affair, as I know them but for reasons hereafter explained, it has been postponed until now." [Author]
