Show Citizen, Press, Review-Wed- ., May 11. 1988 -- Page 13 It was the following July when Port emerged from his cabin late one night after hearing voices across the river. Men were calling for him bring the ferry over. Rubbing the sleep from his eyes, Rockwell hung his glowing lantern on a tree limb, hen harnessed the mare and hit-ched her to the ferry rope. After loosening the ferry from its moorings he led the mare up the trail as the ferry began moving to the far side of the river. One hand held the mare's lead rope The other rested on the butt of a Colt Navy revolver tucked snugly down the front of his trousers. Since April he had been carrying the pistol With increasing frequency, especially at night and when he traveled alone. In April a large group of old citizens had met in Independence, deciding the Mormons must leave Jackson County. Lieutenant Governor Boggs had been among them, issuing the official ultimatum to the Mormons that they must leave jie county before January 1, 1834. The Mormons held a meeting of their own, deciding they would not obey the unjust ultimatum. They would fight back in the courts, and in the press. Many guessed, however, that the battle would spread beyond the courts and newspapers, especially after another W. W. Phelps blistering editorial against slavery, inviting free blacks to join the Mormons in Missouri. That's why Porter was carrying a gun. When the mare stopped at the end of the path, Port could hear the clatter of shod hooves on wood as horses scrambled onto his boat. He had ferried a group of mounted Missourians across the river earlier in the afternoon, and guessed the same men were returning. Earlier, the men had been sullen and angry. One had told Rockwell they were on their way to the Evening and Morning Star headquarters in In-dependence to have a little talk with "nigger-love- r Phelps." Upon receiving the signal that the craft was loaded, Port led the mare towards the landing as the ferry began moving back across the river towards the landing. Porter felt relief, hearing a generous amount of laughter and good-nature- d swearing coming from his craft. He figured the men on the boat wouldn't be acting that way had they had any intention of doing harm to Port or his property. He couldn't help but wonder why they were so jovial. Perhaps they were drunk. When the ferry bumped against its moorings, Port was there to secure it snugly against the dock. The men were silent now as they began to remove their horses. "How was it? Your little talk with Elder Phelps?" Port asked as he helped unload the first horse. He was eager to know what had happened, thinking they might just tell him, if he asked. "Wonderful," responded one of the men, a note of sarcasm in his voice that Porter didn't trust.

Here, she displays the same selfless qualities that she has been known for throughout her nursing career. "Barbara consistently goes beyond the extra mile in the per-sonalized care she gives her patients," says same day surgery supervisor Beth Clegg, R.N. "Her communication skills and caring personality make her easy to work with." Leonhardt says she wanted to be a nurse since she was a child. Her mother trained as a nurse, and her daughter is a nurse as well. "I've always liked to be helping people - especially children' says Leonhardt. "I have loved the years I have worked at American Fork Hospital - mostly because of the people. Everyone is concerned about each other - we work together as a team." Leonhardt lives in Orem with her husband, Paul. They have four children and three grandchildren (with another one on the way). As AFH Nurse of the Year, Leonhardt was awarded a special placque. She also received a weekend in Saint George for her family, thanks to the generosity of AFH anesthesiologist, Dr. David Timpson, who donated the use of his condominium. Known among patients and co-workers as an example of com-- , passion and service, Barbara Leonhardt, R.N., was honored as 'American Fork Hospital Nurse of the Year as part of the National ,Nurse's Day celebration May 6. "Nursing in the 80's is a time of 'constant change, with more to ac-complish than time will allow," says ilSue Fleming, assistant over nursing. "Yet..AFH nurses perform well -"- our patients receive excellent care, and the reputation of the hospital . . . thrives." Leonhardt exemplifies this nurs-ing spirit, according to and physicians. "When patients repeatedly ask for and about Bar-bara when they return to the lospital, you know she exemplifies he (best) qualities in nursing care -i-he's a gem," says one AFH )hysician, who nominated her for he award.
