President’s

• Memorial Names

Every challenge offers the alternatives of future success or failure* No Mormon pioneer ever realized this more clearly than young Harry Roberts who had to face in addition to all other challenges of pioneer settlement the relatively unique challenge of being disfellowshipped from the church at the young age of 17 years for riotous conduct unbecoming a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints* Would he continue his constant associa¬ tion and activity with one of the wildest, hard drinking, gun fighting Utah miners, or would he accept the challenge of Bishop Edwin Wooley by turning his life around and following gospel precepts?

The silent darkness of a Saturday night at SUP headquarters was shat¬ tered by vandals who fired shells at the large windows of the Pioneer Historical Research Library*

Three Challenges:

Three of the units were eventual¬ ly replaced. The loss was covered by insurance which went into force only weeks earlier.

So may it be with the Sons of Utah Pioneers and our challenge to name memorialize all Utah pioneers. If we falter with only 6,000 names, our response to the challenge will be failure. However, if we each personnally commit diligently to memorialize all our pioneer ancestors and invite all our friends and neighbors to join with us, a spiritual success not dissimilar to that of Brigham H* Roberts may attend our efforts.

*Tf we commit diligently , Spiritual success may attend,11

Incidentally, neither Brigham H. Roberts nor his excep¬ tional pioneer mother, Ann Everington Roberts, a/k/a Ann Everington Wooley, have yet been memorialized in our Pioneer Hall of Fame* They are but 2 of the 74,000 names we have yet to secure to convert our challenge into a meaningful success.

Jack Nielsen, SUP Executive Sec¬ retary, discovered and reported the damage to police. Investigation of the scene produced few leads to help identify the culprits*

His extraordinarily successful response to that challenge is still one of the greatest examples of personal growth in the history of Mormondom. That delinquent, nearly il¬ literate boy became President Brigham Henry Roberts of the First Quorum of Seventy, elected Utah Congressional Delegate and author of thirty major books, including the monumental Comprehensive History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints* The editions of his writings have totaled nearly three-quarters of a million copies, and his reputation nearly a half century after his death is that of a Mormon genius who, probably more than any other individual, became the greatest defender and ex¬ ponent of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, His response to his unique challenge was an overwhelming success.

East Mill Creek Presents $2500 For SUP Building

Responding to National President William Critchlow’s appeal for $25 per member to pay final expenses on the new headquarters building, the East Mill Creek Chapter has presented a check for $2500 to the National Society*

• Recruit Members

Overlooking the building's en¬ trance, the double-glazed windows were struck repeatedly by bullets, fired from the parking lot area. Twice, they penetrated both outer and inner panes*

II thus became the first chapter to meet that challenge in full* The check was presented to John J. Nielsen, Executive Secretary, and also a member of the chapter. Two other chapters have made partial payments, he added. The National Board commended the chapter for their loyalty and support, and urged other chapters to follow their exam¬ ple,

I trust that all chapters will have by the end of January, 1982, actively working committees on name memorialization, membership and chapter projects. We can successfully chip away at our name memorialization challenge if each chapter will submit monthly at least 10 names for memorialization. Our work' load will be lighter and the benefits of our membership more extensively shared if each chapter would sponsor at least 6 new members each month. And finally, our special mission to preserve the heritage of our pioneer forebears will be immeasureably enhanced if each chapter will complete during 1982 a meaningful pioneer memorialization project* At no other time in the history of our society has the success of our society depended so much on each individual member*

f 'This is the kind of response we have been hoping for, M said Presi¬ dent Critchlow.

Dr. Avard Fairbanks addresses audience and press who saw new marble sculpture unveiled at SUP building.

Eight years to the day after Presi¬ dent Spencer W. Kimball 's ordina¬ tion as President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, a marble bust honoring him was unveiled at SUP National Head¬ quarters, The ceremonies took place at 4 p.rxi,, Wednesday, December 30, under direction of National President William F. Critchlow III, The bust was carved earlier this year in Italy, of white cararra mar¬ ble, by Dr, Avard Fairbanks from an original by his son, Justin Fairbanks, Participating with the father-son sculptors in the unveiling was Grif¬ fith Lyn Kimball, of Draper, Utah, president of the Kimball Family Association. Representing President Kimball was his personal secretary, Arthur Haycock,

President Kimball and his family were not present. On advice of his doctor, he remained at home, and other family members were atten¬ ding the funeral services for his brother-in-law, Dr. Henry Eyring.

In his concluding remarks, Presi¬ dent Critchlow recounted some im¬ pressive counsel he received from President Kimball as the church leader visited his home during a stake conference assignment in Ogden, President Kimball told the young man that the Priests Quorum was the most important group to which he could belong. As he followed President Kimball's advice, other high school students followed his example, leading to solution of a problem with youth clubs at Ogden High School.

ORSON PRATTSelf-taught in math¬ ematics and natural science, he became an apostle and missionary ca. 1878)

On April 19, 1847 the Great Mormon Trek was on* The Vanguard Company left Winter Quarters with 143 men, 3 women, and 2 children. The most famous member of the elite group was of course Brigham Young, president of the twelve and leader of the expedi¬ tion. But there were others (in¬ cluding seven members of the twelve) who are not as well known yet were just as important to the company as was Brigham. One such man was Orson Pratt. Pratt, al¬ though self-taught, was remarkably well educated especially in mathe¬ matics and natural science. His ex¬ pertise proved invaluable to that first company of pioneers and to all those who followed.

The years that followed brought many missions and many hardships including participation in the long march of Zion's Camp. In 1835 he was ordained one of the original twelve apostles of the new dispensa¬ tion which brought more missions

EARLY LIFE

and no fewer hardships. In 1840 he with several of the twelve went to the British Isles to preach. Orson labored in Scotland where he published the first of his numerous pamphlets and articles defending the Church. Upon his return to America he again labored as a missionary, this time in the Eastern United States and Canada. He returned to Nauvoo in July of 1844 after hear¬ ing of the martyrdom of the Prophet and assisted the twelve in their preparation to move the church west.

1847 TREK

When Orson left Winter Quarters with the Vanguard Com¬ pany in early April of 1847 he was well equipped to fulfill the role assigned to him by Brigham Young, His wagon contained the normal provisions: food, seed, farming equipment, hunting rifle, etc., but also among these necessities were many unique items. Orson's diary gives a list of these unusual provi¬ sions,

These items by no means were unnecessary baggage for Orson. The thermometer and barometer were used to take readings which allowed him to calculate elevation to a fair degree of accuracy. The sextant was used to measure distance and deter¬ mine latitude and longitude so the company might know their position on the map. Typical entries from his diary exemplify the use of these in¬ struments:

"May 24th (1847) at six o ’clock this morning a few flakes of snow descended. The barometer stood at 26.433, attached thermometer 40 deg., detached ther. 38 deg,,

(Courtesy of the LDS Historical Department)

In September of 1830 Parley P. Pratt paid a visit to Orson, his younger brother, in order to intro¬ duce him to Mormonism. Parley's message did not fall upon deaf ears for what Orson heard rang true and he submitted to baptism on September 19th his 19th birthday.

Orson was born in the brilliant New England autumn of 1811. His family was then residing in Hart¬ ford, Washington County, New York, just sixty miles from the birth¬ place of the Prophet Joseph Smith in Sharon, Vermont. His parents, Jared Pratt and Charity Dickinson were poor farmers which meant Or¬ son and his brothers as young men were required to leave home to seek work and provide for their own education. Providing for his own education Orson did with a passion including the study of science and mathematics as well as a careful study of the Bible.

ORSON PRATT

PIONEER ODOMETER a device very similar to this was designed by Orson Pratt to measure the distance travelled by the 1847 Company. fCourtesy of the LDS Historical Department)

4 'May 10th (1847) For several days past, Mr* Clayton, and several others, have been thinking upon the best method of attaching some machinery to a wagon, to in¬ dicate the number of miles dai¬ ly travelled. I was requested this forenoon, by Mr* B* Young, to give this subject some attention; accordingly, this afternoon, I proposed tne following method: Let a wagon wheel be of such a cir¬ cumference, that 360 revolu¬ tions make one mile, (It hap¬ pens that one the requisite dimensions is now in camp.) Let this wheel act upon a screw, in such a manner, that six revolutions of this screw act upon a wheel of sixty cogs, which will evidently perform one revolution per mile. Let this wheel of sixty cogs, be the head of another screw, acting upon another wheel of thirty cogs; it is evident that in the movements of this second wheel, each cog will represent one mile* Now, if the cogs were numbered from O to 30,

the number of miles travelled will be indicated during every parf of the day. Let every sixth cog of the first wheel, be numbered from 0 to JO, and this division will indicate the fractional parts of a mile, or tenths; while if any one should be desirous to ascertain still smaller divisional fractions; each cog between this divi¬ sion, will give five and onethird rods* This machinery (which may be called the dou¬ ble endless screw) will be sim¬ ple in its construction, and of very small bulk, requiring scarcely any sensible additional power, and the knowledge ob¬ tained respecting distances in travelling, will certainly be very satisfactory to every traveller, especially in a coun¬ try, but little known* The weight of this machinery need not exceed three pounds*”

Another important contribution which Orson made was to design a device which would measure the distance travelled by the company each day. Some have suggested that Orson was the inventor of this device called the odometer (some¬ times called Roadometer) but this cannot be so. Early in the 19th cen¬ tury odometers were used in England and there are extant draw¬ ing of an odometer designed by Leonardo Da Vinci dating to the 16th century* This is also clear evidence that odometer designs were in existance in Rome at the time of Christ and possibly the first design dates to Archimedes in 200 B.C«

Even though Orson is not the first inventor of the odometer, his accomplishment on the plains of

“May 27th (1847)*,.a trigo¬ nometrical measurement with the sextant gives the width of the river at this place 792 yards* By a meridian observa¬ tion of the sun, determined the latitude to be 41 deg. 50 min. 52 sec.”

showing a considerable change both in weight and tempera¬ ture of the air since yesterday morning, giving for tne height of our camp above the level of the sea 3370 feet,,.1'

Nebraska is nevertheless praise¬ worthy for he completed the design quickly and with remarable ease* Again from his diary he explains:

ODOMETER

The contributions of Orson Pratt to the Mormon migration to Utah were numerous indeed, but of even greater value was the example he set of seeking truth throughout his life regardless of the source.

A few days later on May 16th, a carpenter named Appelton Harmon finished the construction and ac¬ curate milage of the pioneer trek could then be recorded.

We quote from the 41Brief His¬ tory of the National Society of the Sons of Utah Pioneers” by Gustive O* Larson (July 1963)

'Tapers left by the late Lawrence T* Epperson tell of an organization meeting held in the office of Heber Jex with Epperson presiding* In this and subsequent meetings a consti¬ tution and by-laws were for¬ mulated and on March 29, 1933, the Sons of LItah Pioneers were incorporated as a state society* ***J

Delegates at the Mesa Encamp¬ ment in October will vote for the vice presidential candidates only for their own area* The elections will take place during area meetings at the annual meeting*

These three goals are not un¬ reasonable and they can be ac¬ complished with the cooperation of all of our present members and those who will join with us in the months to come. A program has already been arranged for our complete freedom from debt. With 6,000 pioneers memorialized out of an ap¬ proximate 80,000 in all, there is no excuse here for not accepting such a challenge. An up-dated history can be written from the annals of our past.

Peak Use of Building in December

Between Dedicatory Services August and December 7, thirty-one formal events were held in the facilities of the SUP national head¬ quarters building, according to Ex¬ ecutive Secretary John J, Neilsen, An additional 18 events were scheduled before year-end, for a total of 49*

Three family organizations have held reunions, and two wedding receptions were scheduled by SUP families. Five other events were held

The building is available only to SUP members and chapters and con¬ tributors to the Pioneer Gallery*

In addition to the events already held, the building is being con¬ sidered for recitals, concerts, dances and seminars.

A practical and effective way of developing an appreciation of the we enjoy today is to sponmarking of historical sites. Such projects naturally involve a study of the history of the particular landmarks being preserved and the contribution of the pioneers of yesterday to our present civilization* Several landmarks and trails have Complfments of

An election was held for the chapter on November 16. Officers and Board members were elected. They are as follows:

Two mini buses filled with modern day pioneers journeyed across the Arizona Strip, climbed the gentle slopes of Buckskin (Kaibab) mountain, passed Jacob Lake (nam¬ ed for Jacob Hamblin), descended to the colorful Houserock Valley and arrived at Lees Ferry in time for lunch* Dutch oven cookout with all the trimmings was a special treat in the cool shade of spreading cotton¬ wood trees. Ted Cox, Ermon Robinson, and Whit Robinson were among those who shared their knowledge of the history of the area and the events and people who lived there, A hike to the old cemetery and a boat ride up the river provided a greater appreciation of the peaceful beauty*

The ride home was by way of Bitter Springs on the Navajo Indian reservation, and Glen Canyon Dam with Lake Powell. At Wahweap recreation area everyone enjoyed a rest stop with cool watermelon and community singing. Everyone had a great time and is looking forward to the next adventure.
