| QUOTE OF THE DAY Heber J. Grant |

Elder William S. Berry and Elder John H. Gibbs were killed by an anti-Mormon mob led by David Hinson, who was killed in the fight by John Riley Hutson. Half brothers, John Riley Hutson and W. Martin Conder, were also killed by the mob. Sister Malinda Condor was shot and wounded in the hip but would recover enough to walk with a cane..
