When Brigham Young moved the Latter-day Saints into Mexico’s Great Basinin1847, he protected them from mob violence and corrupt politics but didn’tend their worries. Now isolated from major communities and sources of supply,cut off from affordable and dependable freight and mail service until 1869, thesettlers tried to “make do.”1They imported and exported goods and mailthrough the Brigham Young Express and Carrying Company and made use oflocal materials. During the early years companies were formed to grow beets forsugar, to turn wood pulp and rags into paper, and to make pottery from localclay deposits. In 1862a large mill was built on Parleys Creek in the Salt LakeValley to process sheep fleece into wool. [Author]
