The following is part of the information from these papers which have been copied and the in the originals monument along with history and names of members and officers of the Henefer camp of the DUP, names of the present presidency of Summit Stake, a copy of the letter from the Stake Presidency to the Henefer DUP giving them the monument to be placed on the Old Mormon Trail and a picture of the contents of the original box. 'From the time of its settlement to the time of its or- - Thursday, September 28, ;anizatlon as a stake of Zion n 1877, the region now comprising the Summit Stake was iresided over directly by President Brigham since President William Oriel Stephens called the Stake MIA Boards together to consider the erection of a suitable monument to be placed above Castle Rock to mark the intersection of the old Pioneer Trail and the Lincoln Highway. As the new highway was then in the course of construction and nothing could be done until the road was completed, work was delayed until this year on the monument. At that time it was suggested that people of the Stake be called out at different times to donate some of their time and help build a monument of concrete, but when the road was completed and little time left to finish the monument in time to hold the dedication around the time that Summit Stake was fifty years old, it was suggested that the monument be built of granite, a monument that would stand for ages. A plan was drawn, contract awarded to ouhhome town institutions who worked overtime into the wee hours of the morning and had the monument erected on time. Wednesday, July 13, was a day that will be remembered in Subunit Stake for years to come, for on that day great throngs attended the dedication of the Pioneer Trail monument.

With another couple, they took the trailer and the brat for fun and fishing, ended up In an attempted robbery and shooting. They launched the boat Saturday evening and retired to the trailer for sleep. After midnight they were aroused by a car headed for the beach, and Sterl dressed and went down to Investigate. He found three young men near his boat. They said they were Just going swimming. Sterling returned to the trailer, picked up a gun, and returned to the boat with his companion. They ordered the intruders to leave, which they did, and then Williams learned that the engine had been partially removed from Its moorings In an attempt at theft. Again quiet settled In, but at 3:30 the men returned, stopped at a distance, and began a fussilade of shots at the trailer. The sleepless Peoa group finally moved the trailer to the yard of an uncle living a mile away, and the next morning turned the license number of the night-rovivisitors over to the deputy sheriff at Duchng esne. He promised action, said he knew who the wild boys were, and the Williams are still awaiting word. Last word was that the Duchesne J. P. had refused to permit Sterling Williams to sign a complaint, and they are still wondering why. j a ryif a To Continue Through Fall Dozens of workers, with many lieces of equipment right down to the hoe and rake, turned out to work on Kamas Towns clean-u- p and beautify project last week end.
