Brett Mickelsen, sons of Bart and Linda Kiesel were presented to Quig Nielson At the memorable 1865 April Conference of The Church of Jesus Christof Latter-da- y Saints, Brigham Young called for the immediate building of a telegraph line extending from St. George in southern Utah to St. Charles in Bear Lake Valley. The Mormon leader had followed with keen interest the construction of the telegraph line from Omaha to the Pacific coast since he had contracted to supply poles, subsistence and transportation, fora part of the project. Young called upon bishops and presiding elders to assist in the erection of the telegraph line. They were asked to secure and set up poles and to gather up subscriptions for the purchase of the wire and insulators. Those settlements expecting to have a telegraph station were urged to select one or two young men and send them to Salt Lake City to be trained in the art of telegraphy. The wire and insulators were brought into Salt Lake City by 65 wagons on October 15, 1866. B.H. Roberts wrote, By December 1st the line was established between Salt Lake City and Ogden; by December 8, it was opened north to Logan; by December 28, it had reached Manti in the south, and by January 15 the line was opened to St. George with a branch line crossing into San Pete County; five hundred m ilcs of line had been erected by this time. Late in 1869 the line was installed to Franklin, Idaho, and two years later it reached Paris, Idaho. During the first few months of the telegraph, it cost $7.50 for a message to New York. Deseret Telegraph Company after many years of operation, was taken over by the Western Union Telegraph Company.
