When you read the diaries of those who lived through those trying times, one wonders and even marvels at their courage In a letter to the Deseret News written in early 1876. the writer claims that Fillmores main source of revenue came from her sale of superior quality fruit. Freighters took wagons loaded with fruit to the mining towns of Utah and Nevada, where they found ready sales since the fruit was of superior quality and flavor, especially apples and peaches There were nearly one thousand residents in Fillmore at the close of 1875. The Public Library had over 200 volumes on its shelves which were in constant use. There were four schools, all with excellent teachers and the people were determined to get a good education James Assistant Territorial Schools Dwyer. Director for Utah, accompanied the Superintendent on a trip through the Territory to examine the conditions of the schools. He had this to say about the schools of Fillmore- "The students of the schools of Fillmore answered all of the questions put to them in a very satisfactory manner " He complimented the school superintendent. John Kelly, on the high type of teachers who were teaching in Fillmore at that time. There was an Athenaeum Club where subjects were The people were debated and minds sharpened much more concerned about getting good educations lhan they were about their clothes or the kind of homes in which they lived or how their homes were furnished Their homes and clothing were scrupIt took them ulously clean, but of poor quality nearly 25 years to prove that they could conquer the desert and raise enough food to keep the people strong and healthy. Now the railroad was here and merchandise could be shipped into Utah by rail at much less cost, and the pioneers could begin to dress better and furnish their homes with some much needed furniture. "Builders of Early Millard" contains the records of many of those who have earned our undying gratitude for teaching us how to appreciate the worthwhile activities of everyday living, of caring and sharing with our neighbor To those valiant early settlers of Millard County, we. the East Millard Daughters of the Pioneers, dedicate this book. Small towns have a tendency to take care of the present needs but do very little serious planning for future growth Fillmore does not come under this category, since Brigham Young and his committee chose Fillmore as the Capitol of the Territory of Utah. If the biographies of your ancestors who pioneered East Millard are not in our book, it is the fault of the families of these courageous pioneers as we cannot print what was not written. We do hope, however, that the book has and will continue to inspire different families to print their own family histories in more detail, since the longer we wait the less concrete information we can get Family tales have a way of changing as the stories are told from one generation to another The real facts are intensely interesting, we don't need to enlarge upon the real facts. The writing of a book is a real task, but we hope each family will organize and begin this worthwhile task, since there is nothing more worthwhile.
