  1. NEEDLESS TO SAY, A FEW FOLKS ARE PRETTY UPSET OVER THIS.

    More on; or is it Moron!

    September Dawn

    This is the story of an improbable romance between two nineteen-year-olds from starkly different worlds. Jonathan - the son of a Mormon Bishop, is suffocating under the rigid confines and expectations of the church as well as tormented by the execution of his loving Mother.
    When a wagon train passes through their land, Jonathan is ordered to spy on the Gentiles by his untrusting father, Jacob, and falls in love with beautiful, free-spirited Emily - the daughter of a Christian pastor.

    Set in a beautiful, pristine valley called Mountain Meadows, Jonathan tames a wild, magnificent black stallion and wins the heart of the girl who has captured his. Emily opens Jonathan’s eyes to a world that lies outside of his personal torment as they pursue their forbidden love.
    Aware of the drastic change in his son’s behavior, Jacob believes the traveling gentiles are a threat to his family’s way of life and instigates one of the most controversial battles in American history. Painful to watch is the psychological fragmentation of Jonathan’s beloved brother, good-natured Micah, who self-destructs in the process of becoming a killer.

    Jonathan races to save Emily, as the scope and magnitude of their love amidst the searing fire and ashes of the Mountain Meadow Massacre unforgettably unfolds. Jonathan is faced with the most difficult decision of his life. He must choose between his brother, his faith, or Emily…by the rise of the SEPTEMBER DAWN.

    Note: This typescript (prepared in December 1998) has been compared for accuracy with a typewritten transcription of the published House document Bracketed insertions in the text have been included for clarity, to note corrections in names, or to add complete names. The bracketed identification of the surviving children is a suggestion based on information on the memorial that was placed at Mountain Meadows in 1990.

  3. It would be interesting to hear from some in CC /Hildale regarding the assembly of the silo as noted in photos above. Does it look like the one that is now missing from your area of the world?

  8. So you're calling Jesus, the son of God a thief?

    Your painting him to be the same sort of thief as warren?

    BTW he didn't state he *was* a thief in the night. He stated he came, LIKE a thief in the night - QUIETLY

    IT'S A SIMILE FOR GOSH SAKE
    Any kid in elementary school could get a simple simile. Your not a good code breaker if you can't even get the stuff written in plain english

    examples:

    my loves like a red, red, rose
    cold as ice
    happy as a clam
    soft as sifted flour
    easy as pie
    he eats like a pig
    fresh as a daisy
    tough as leather
    pretty as a picture
    vines like golden prisons
    his nose like a cherry

    Send back the coherent OTS - the one that can read.
