"LEST WE FORGET" In looking over the progress riid prosperity of this "beloved Uimah basin", let us aot forget some of the Christian men that made it possible for the brave pioneers to stay and made the desert blossom like a rjie. Where northing but darkness v.or ed to be facing us, when hunger W3s all that could be hoped for, these "beloved men", Dan Barry, Calvert end Waugh, of Myton, A. M. Murdock Mur-dock of Duchesne, C. C. Larsen of Roosevelt, opened up the way by providing food and clothing in order that the struggling pioneer might "blaze the trail for the next generation genera-tion wiih a supply cf "grub' and a load of hay and grain, purchased from these men "on time" with a "promise to pay" many a homesteader home-steader began to build r'-ads, to get to the head waters of the Lakefork and I'intah rivers in order that they .might start the canal work at" the Head of these waters. Without the aid cf these men, it would have been impossible to have undertaken such a task. Then too some of us would have had to "take up pur bed and walk'' to a more sunny clime, but thanks to these gentlemen for the help that lightened the burden of the pioneers of the Uintah basin. Cie does not need to be president of the U. S A., or a king on a throne, to show tht Christ like spirit given to man. Let us do honor to these men who had faith in the people and the Uintah basin's future: develcp-mc-nt and last, but not least, let us o?r a prayer to the "Maker" that their yoke may be easy and the burden bur-den light a3 they are marching I bravely toward the settir.g sun. j"OXE WHO HAS NOT FORGOTTEN' |
