SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF JAMES HOWARD
FromEnglandineighteenhundredand sixty-four, the ship Hudson sailed for adistant shore. Its cargo, so I'mtold, was farmore precious than glittering gold. For onits decks untouchedby fear, stood ourHowardPioneers.
The father stood there inawondering mood, while around the motherclutteredher littlebroodof eleven, all heartsfull of song. Itwas for God's purpose thatthey sailed along. Fullof adventure andcourage andvim, they'd left all behindthembut that love ofhim.
James Howard, the third son ofJoseph and Ann Shelton Howard,was bornJanuary 29, 1846 at Warwickshire, England.James was confirmed when eight years oldbyhis farther. James' father's family wasliving at Birmingham at that time, and acoal company employedhis father. They
3rd. The family consisted of the parents andnine children, two already inUtah. Therewere four boys, of whom James was theoldest, and five girls. James arrived inNewYork City on July 19, 1864, and commencedhis westwardjourney to the RockyMountains.
When about two or three hundredmiles out on the plains, James andhisbrother, Joe, accepted ajob driving threeyoke of oxen for a Company of Freighters.The WilliamHyde Company paidtwenty-five dollars per month. Thisseparatedhim from his parents and lovedones. He was only eighteen years of age anditwas hardto leave them. Inthe early partof the journey he contracted MountainFeverandwas very illfor some time. James wasina weakened conditionwhen he took thejob. He met and suffered the trials that besetthe Saints inpioneer life. They livedon
hada small farm on the outskirts of the city,which helpedprovide an income. His fatherhad formerly been an expert brewer but hadlost his employment when hejoined theChurch. Most of the converts of thatDistrict were baptizedinan outdoor pool onthe HowardFarm. James and his olderbrothers helpedtheir father both on the farmand at the coal yard. Inspite of this theyhadbarely enough to provide the simplenecessities of life. They were active andprominent inChurch affairs.
In1861the two older boys, Thomasand William, immigratedto Utah, wherethey found employment on the farm ofWilliam Muir inBountiful. They were toprovide funds for the immigration for therest of the family. Itwas not until 1864 thatthe others left England. They sailed fromLondonon the sailing ship Hudson, on June
rations and were always hungry. At onetime rations were so low he was allowedone-half of a pancake at a meal. A smallhorse blanket was his only bedding. Jameswould move the oxen and lay down wherethey hadwarmed the ground andpull theblanket over himself.
James' mother was worriedbecausehis feet were sore andhe hadno warmsocks, so she knittedhim some socks as shewalked beside her wagon. One eveningafter the socks were finished she walkedback to her son's camp and gave them to himsaying, "take these, James, you may needthem." They hada good visit but itwasmorningby the time she returnedto hercamp. This was the last time James saw hismother. She and two ofhis sisters died onthe plains. Hepassedhis mother's grave;not knowing she haddied and was buriedin
4
a place called Bitter Creek, which was aboutthree hundredmiles from Salt Lake. Thisoccurred inSeptember of 1864. There was agreat bondof affectionbetween James andhis mother. His mother saidhe was alwaysdevoted and obedient and thoughtful of her.Because his healthwas not as robust as hisbrother's was, she hadto watch over him.He was backward, would not assert himself,and often suffered. As he grew older hedeveloped self-confidence.
Inspite of weakness from lack offood, the Howardbrothers did a man's workand carried on inthe spirit of the truepioneer. They traveled very slowly becauseofheavy loads andbadroads, and arrived inSalt Lake City inNovember. They wereseveral weeks later than the rest of thefamily, who came with the immigrationtrain. The lastpart of the trip was extremelydifficult because ofheavy snow and shortrations. His boots were worn out and he gota pair from the freight boss, which were toolarge, and they wore blisters on his feet.The cattlc would stray away at night insearch of food, and itwas sometimes noonor later before they couldbe found. Thecattle were yoked to some of the wagons,and after taking them some distance theywouldbe brought back, leaving the wagonswhere they were. Then the cattle wereyoked to the last of the wagons, whichwouldbe brought up. This meant constantwalking through deep snow with boots,blisters constantly raw, and this was almostmore than human strength could stand. Ittook three days to bringthe train from thesummit of Parley's Canyonto the EightWard Square. Uponarriving inSalt Lake hewas toldof the death ofhis mother by amember of the Company that journeyed withhis father.
James arrivedinSalt Lake City oneyear after the opening of the Salt Lake
Theatre. He and some members of theCompany attended the Theatre that night intheir clothing that they hadworn across theplains.
His father and family had settled inWest Bountiful. James andhis olderbrother,William, found work on theWilliam Muir farm inthe summer andhauled logs from the mountain inthe winter.They used the logs for their own firewood,also selling it to Salt Lake City merchants.While working on the W.S. Muir farm heobtainedhis first cow. James dug ditchesfor Mr.Muir, taking a heifer for his pay. Heworked early and late and completed thework inso short a time that Mr.Muirhesitated about givinghimthe cow. Jamesalso didwork for a Mr.Grant for a span ofmules.
William and James freighted withmule teams before the railroadwascompleted. They worked on the constructionof the first transcontinental railroadatPromontory, out near Ogden, Utah. Theyworked together several years and in 1869were marriedto sisters, Juliett and BetsyJane Fackrell.
Juliett Fackrell and James Howardwere marriedApril 19, 1869. The marriagetook place inthe Endowment House at SaltLake City, Utah,by Joseph F. Smith. TheylivedinWest BountifuluntilApril of 1870,when they movedinto a log cabin on theirproperty. This home was locatedwhere hishome now stands inSouth Bountiful onHowardStreet, and there James spent therest of his life.
When he movedto South Bountifulhe hadthe cow he obtained and the span ofmules. He got ten or twelve sheep from aMr.Arnold. Several menput the sheeptogether and they hireda herder. While in
5
SouthBountifulhe helpedto grade thetracks of the D & RGrailroadthrough hisownproperty. When he settled on the placewhere his home now stands, he was called agreen Englishmanto try to raise anything ongreasewoods.
For some years he worked on hisfather's place inthe foothills, now known asthe Stanzel place, untilhe was able to buyenough landto builda farm. He would takehis lunchofbread andmolasses andwalk tothe Howardhome on the hillwork all dayand walk back inthe evening. His cropsconsisted of sugar cane, potatoes, and alfalfaseed. Beinga hardworking, thrifty andhonest man, he soon acquired enough landto engage indairy farming.
Although busily engaged inmakinga living for his growing family, James foundtime to spend incivic and church affairs.He accepted a position as Trustee of theSchool Boardof the South Davis Schools.James Howardwas ordainedby Ezra F.

strict observer of all religious duties. Hislife was governed inevery respect by theexample of the Master. Knownbyhiscontemporaries and descendants as a manofgreat integrity, James was willing tosacrifice what he was rightly entitled torather than cause another to lose faith inhim. He was know as a free and cheerfulgiver, andreferredto as a man of few wordsbut a deep thinker. Many sought himforadvice. He often quoted the words of thewriter who said, "selfpraise is norecommendation". A business associateremarked at his death, "there lies the mosthonest andhonorable manIknow." Duringhis sleep at his home inSouth Bountiful,James passed on.

Juliett FackrellHoward
Juliett FackrellHoward, daughter ofJoseph Crumb and Clarissa DempseyFackrell, granddaughter ofAmy Crumb andJames Fackrell, was bornJan. 19, 1849 atMillville Jo Davis Co., Illinois. She was thethird child ina family of fourteen, fivebrothers and eight sisters.
Her grandparents, James FackrellandAmy Crumb, were the first to receive thegospel andbe baptizedmembers of thechurch. They immigratedto Utah about theyear 1852. Her parents, Joseph CrumbFackrell and Clarissa Dempsey, weremarriedin 1845 at Grafton, Windhome Co.,Vermont.
Juliett's father received the gospelbefore her mother. He earnestly sought theLordinprayer that she wouldbe impressedwith the truthfulness of the Gospel. Inthemeantime her father, Joseph Fackrell. whileyet inthe east, hada dream given to him.One day while plowing Joseph was visitedby MormonMissionaries. Impressedbytheir message, he dreamed that night that hewent to Utah. He saw a loghouse where hisfather andmother had locatedinWestBountiful. On the corner of the lot was abeautiful spring of crystal water. His fatherwas standing by the spring with a yoke ofoxen. There were green cultivated fields inthe valley and snow topped mountains inthebackground. The dream was so impressiveand disturbedhimto such an extent that hecouldnot sleep the rest of the night. Thenext morninghe decided to make ready forthe longjourney to Utah.
When her father toldher mother of thisdream, she replied, "Joseph, Iwill go withyou, but ifthis dream you've hadisn't true,we will return to our people." This dream
was given to Juliett's father shortly before hewas baptized. At this time they had fourchildren. With a coveredwagon, one yokeof oxen, and a few necessities, they startedon their journey to Utah. They were sixweeks on this trip and came inthe BiglowCompany, inthe spring of 1852. When theyreachedWest Bountifulhis dream wasfulfilled even to the part ofhis fatherwatering his oxen. They settled inWestBountifuluntil the fall of 1852, leavingthere, and going to Farmingtonwhere theyrented some landandremained for fiveyears.
They againmovedback to WestBountifulwhere Juliett attendedher schooland spent the remainder ofher childhood.At the age of eight years she accompaniedher family inthe move south when theJohnston's Army came to drive the people
_outj)f the valley. Ontheir returntrip as theydrove around the point at Jordan, Utahnarrows, there was avery dangerousdugway. Her mother was driving the teamofhorses inthe leadandinsome way theoxen next to them caught the lines on theirhorns. This caused them to turn toward thedeep ravine. Susan Fackrell, her Aunt,seeing the danger her mother was in, ranandpulledthe lines off the hornof the oxen,thus saving them from overturning anddestruction. The family was overjoyed toreturnto their home inWest Bountiful, UT.
Due to the scarcity of food, their mealsoften consisted of a bakedpotato and aspoonful ofbranmush. Shoes were aluxury. Juliett and one sister shared a pairof shoes; taking turns inwearing them.Their father made their shoes whenever hewas able to obtain a hide to make leather. Alarge family by the name ofBundy hadno
home or place to go. Her father took theminand sharedtheir scanty supply of foodthrough one winter. He donated to theLatter-day Saint Church the landwhere theWest BountifulAmusement Hallnowstands. This was somewhat of a sacrifice tothe children at that time. The landhe gaveis located one mile northof the WoodsCross Depot. Juliett often spoke to herchildren of these acts of charity which herparents were notedfor, and impressedthemto bekindand generous to each other andtheir associates.
As a young girl of 12 Juliett washed thewool, dyed the yarn, andwove the cloth,both for their own clothes and for others.Her childrenrememberedher braidinghatswith seven strands of straw. About 15 yearsbefore she died, she braidedenough strawfor a hat, andmade it completely. This hatis still inthe possession of a brother atLovell,Wyoming. She was an expert atneedlework andknitting. She often took herchildren to the field with her to gather redroots and'wild'mustard. When cooked, ~
these made a popular dish. InJuliett's daytheir recreationwas going to "peach cuttingor cornhusking" parties. The boys paidtheirtickets to dances with squash, wheat, oranything they had.
Juliett never lackedfor admirers. Thelucky one was James Howard, who arrivedinSalt Lake on Oct. 26, 1864. Juliett madehis acquaintance and they soonbecamesweethearts andwere married. Joseph F.Smithperformedthe wedding ceremony onApril 19, 1869, inthe oldEndowmentHouse inSalt Lake City, Utah. Soon afterthey were married, Juliett's brothers andsisters became sick with black measles. Hermother nursedthem andbeing indelicatehealth contracted the disease and died July5,1869. She left a large family. Inadditionto her own family Juliett took two ofher
mother's children andraisedthem tomanhood andwomanhood.
Juliett and James lived on the WilliamMuir farm while buildingtheir loghome inSouth Bountiful, where their home stillstands. Many times she hadtold us howproud she was to move to their own loghome, although ithadonly a dirt roofandlarge cracks filledwith mud. Later theywere able to buy wallpaper andtack it to theceiling and walls. This was considered aluxury at that time. After livinginthishome for ten years they built on the samelot, a larger andmore convenient home.Elevenof her children were born inthishome.
Juliett, the oldest, was borninWestBountiful. Joseph James died at the age of22. William and Owen died ininfancy.MatildaA. Johnson, Lucy J. Purcell. JamesH. Howard, Clara H.Hatch, Maude H.Ludwig, Rachel H. Davis (deceased), LuellaH.Davis, and Leona H.Arbuckle hadallbeenbornthere.
Her home was always open to neighborsand friends. She was kindand thoughtful tochildren. There were always deliciouscookies and candy for them. Juliett wasknownfor her excellent cooking and wasfamous for her plumpuddings and stuffedfowls. She was patient and tolerant with theweaknesses of others. She was a queen inher ownhome, her authority never beingquestioned. She was obeyed cheerfully andpromptly because she was just.
Inpersonality, Juliett was blessedwith acheerful disposition, a lover ofhome, and akeen sense of humor. She could always seethe funny side of life and was quick to makeany downheartedperson see the brighterside of life. Her eyes were blue; she hadlight brownhair, and was small of stature
9
like her mother. She always enjoyed theyoung people andwas one with them intheir fun and sports.
F. F.WHITNEY wrote the followingAcrostic inhonor of Juliett, inBountiful, onMay 18, 1875.
Juliett be faithful to the LordUse wisdom you'll stand the trying rewardLook forward you will see God's power
Indeedyou'll stand the trying hourEre long the Savior you shall seeTrust inthe Lordyou will be free
The Lordwill ever be your defender.
Have faithyou'll stand on Zion's HillOH! You'll a noble station fill.
Wisdom you'll have to do muchgoodAnd truth to you will be like foodRejoice intruth it's freely given
Dependyou will be saved inHeaven.
Inthe year 1889 Juliet's husbandwascalled on a missionto England. Itwasnecessary foFher to take charge of the milkand farm business, includinga large familyand the hiredmen.
One of her greatest trials was the loss ofher son, Joseph, who died at the age of 22.He was a promisingyoung man andwasordained a Seventyjust two weeks beforebis death. He also hadbooks purchased toattend the University of Utahthat fall. Shefasted andprayedand asked the Lordfordivine guidance pertainingto havinghimsealed to someone, as he was oldenough tohave beenmarried. Itwas not until elevenmonths before her death that she hadadream, convincing her andher husbandtowhom they wouldhave Joseph sealed. Theyat once went to this family she had seen inthe dream. Both families accepted thisdream as divine and the work wascompletedWednesday, April 3, 1923. This
was a great reliefto her mindas she hadworried about it considerably. She hadlosttwo other sons intheir infancy and also adaughter at age 32.
Juliett was a resident of the SouthBountifulWard for 64 years. Duringthistime she worked inthe auxiliaryorganization of the Church. She was acounselor inthe M. I.A. from 1880 to 1888and served as a Relief Society teacher untilher death.
Her chances for educationwere limited.She gave her children the privileges she wasdeprived of. Except for one, all ofherchildren studiedmusic. Four ofherdaughters were organists at different periodsof time inthe South BountifulWard.
On Saturday, April 19, 1919, James andJuliett celebrated their GoldenWeddinganniversary at their home. Many of theirfriends called andwished them happiness ona half century ofmarried life. Her childrenpresented a goldbrooch to her. Their fatherwas the recipient of a watch charm engravedwith the words "Fiftieth anniversary." Otherthan their friends, this loving coupledweregreetedby eight children, thirty-sevengrandchildren, and six great-grandchildren.
Juliett died March2, 1925 at SouthBountiful,Utahinher home, which was thebirthplace ofher children. Funeral serviceswere heldinthe South BountifulWardbuildingat 2:00 p.m., March5, 1925.Bishop Samuel C. HowardofficiatedwithLeGrande Richards as the principal speaker.
After Juliett's death, the followingpersonalbiography was found:
My father, Joseph L. Fackrell, MotherClarissa Dempsey. Father ofEnglishdescent, mother of Irishdescent. They were
10
naturally of a religious nature. MyMotherwas a Methodist.
Iwas bornin 1849, inJo Davis County,near Springfield, Illinois. When three yearsold, during 1952,1came with my parents toUtah. We settled inBountiful for a shorttime and then movedto Farmington, inwhichplaceIhave livedever since. Ibecame the wife of James Howardin 1869 inthe Endowment Houseat Salt Lake City, Utah. Fromthat uniontwelve children werebornto gladden our days.
Ihave passedthrough theshifting scenes of the Saints.Movingout with myparents in1856. When Johnston's Armypassedthrough, it left a great dealof clothing, whichprovedablessing to the people as theywere so destitute, not havingmoney or any way to obtainclothing. When the Army moved4away they left a greatHeal, wEcF"
was an immense benefit to thepeople.
In 1884 my husbandmarriedBetsy Jane Howard,my sister.Fromthat uniona daughter wasborn.
We are happy andhave beenblessed andprosperedinmanyways. My education has beenlimited, as the opportunity ofgaining an education was almostimpossible inthose days. Thething that has most influencedmy life wasto be exemplary inall things, and to raise aposterity that wouldbe a credit to us. Thishas beenverified. We have beenactiveworkers inthe Church of Jesus Christ all our
lives and hope to continue to be for theremainder of our days.
THE OLD INDIANBLANKET
Sometime inthe 1870's,while James andJuliett Howardwere still livingintheir firstlog cabinhome built on the ground wheretheir present home now stands inNorth SaltLake, Utah, BrighamYoung told the settlersto make friends with the Indians andbegoodto them. One Indianinparticular usedto come to her and beg all the time. Shealways gave himwhatever food he askedfor. Most Indians didn't speak a lot ofEnglishbut did learn a few words. This big,mature Indianwould always go to her cabinat bakingtime and asked for flour by saying,"me flour," and she always gave him some.
One day when she was alone, he cameand said, "me flour." Itwas all the flourGrandmother hadto make breadto feed herfamily. She told him, "no," but was veryquick to point to his Indianblanket onhisshoulders and say, "my blanket." He gaveit to her. This blanket was made by realIndians. They got their wool by pickingitoff the barbedwire fences where the sheephadrubbed against. Also, they hadusedvarious colored fruits and roots to dye thewool. This blanket is now inthe possessionof a grandson, E. HowardArbuckle.

THE OLD HOME
Who could count the months and yearsofhonest toil and sweat and tears it cost tobuildthe OldHome? Here, new lives wereushered in, others passed away. Occupantsknew sleepless nights,party nights, timeswhen even the OldHome seemed to pray.There were times of song and laughter,times when music filled the air, and loveserenity andpeace were so strongly there.
The builder chargedhis daughter not topart with the OldHome. Eachroom, tree,verdant spot, climbing vines like leafy laces,shrubbery and lilyplaces, all brought backpoignant memories. Everythingabout theOldHome, renewed loves andreverence inhis heart, makingthe dwelling and itssurroundings hallowedground. Itwassacred to all whose livedlives hadbeentouched by the OldHome. '
Nearly a century has passed away.Nearly a decade of changes as time bringsdecay.
Inrecent years the spacious rooms againecho with laughter, andplay,but...ofunfortunate children, blind, deaf or insomeway needing special help to learn to playlife's part. To this charitable purpose, theOldHome, like its owners, gave freely of itsshelter and heart.
Ifthe builder is watching today, andcouldyoubut hear him,Imsure he wouldsay: "I'mgrateful the OldHome couldbeuseful so long, couldbe helpful for eventhese, and still echoes insong."
Soon its walls must fall and inshambleslie, for like every structure, great or small,the OldHome, too, must die, when ithasserved itspurpose.
Today, we greet our friends on theGoldenWedding Day. The lady is adaughter of the builder of the OldHome. Toyou we say, "As memories come frombygone years, may all your dreams cometrue, and may life always bringthe best ofeverything to you." You know, a weddingsymbolizes new life, a new home, renewedpromises ofpattering feet, a life of dreamsinlove complete.
Thus, old things pass giving way for thenew,but the OldHome leaves its messagefor you and me. To buildcharacter, or anyworthwhile structure, for things must beremembered. The builder must know whatmaterials he has to work with, possess anaccurate means of measuringvalues, havethe idealpattern or blueprint to go by, andknow the cost involved. Character is thegreatest of all structures. To buildwell, isno kid-givenundertaking. Itmay costblood, sweat and tears,,but if these fourthings are followed, a life a true service willbe ours too, and also be a lasting tribute andhonor to the builder.

Lucy Jane HowardPurcell
Nothavinghadthe chance to know mybeloved Grandma,Ican only tell of stories Ihave heard about her. The records showthey were married inBountiful, Davis Co.,Utah, Jun. 29 1898. While living there theyhada large barnthat they helddances in.People would come from miles around todance. Grandpa worked at the brick yard.Letters indicate he was half owner. Thiswas their life. This is where four of theirchildren died from illnesses going around.They were; Marie 1899-1901,Hosmer1900-1901, and Allen 1902-1904. Howardwas bom in 1903, Ronald in 1905,Wilmain 1907, and Lucy in 1909. Lucy also diedthere at the age of 4 months.
Soonthey heardof another settlement inChurchill, Idaho and decided to live there.Grandma was pregnant withmy father,Maurice James (Jim) in 1914, and he was-bornin-a-tent—Life-was-hardon themjust_like everyone else. They cleared the landofsage bushes and trees and worked theground, building themselves a home. Timewent on and the word about Churchill beinga wonderful place was heard. Soon morepeople came. Therefore more water wasneeded for the people and their crops. Soonthe water became scarce. Then there wasnot any. People movedfrom Churchillwithwhat they couldhaul andwere not able tosell their homes and land. Many of themjust left. That is where they lost their homeand crops, everything.
Lois,my sister, remembers Grandma'sbeautifulbrownwavy hair. Combing itwhile she sat on the chair infront of the oldwood stove.
Dadalways told this story. As ayoungster he once triedhis mother's
patience. Itall startedwith his motheraskinghimto do something inthe kitchen.Hebravely replied, "No!" That's how it allstarted. Grandma took out after him,through the kitchenand out the door, andheescapedby running downthough the field.He was inthe leadall the way "until," theycame to the corner. There he ranaround thecorner, but Grandma hada different idea.She ranacross the comer and caught himbyhis neck. Now he saidhe didn't get hugsandkisses, but rather the other. He claimedhe never toldhis mother "No" again.
One time Ronaldtook his mother for aride with the team of horses andbuggy.Somehow the buggy was overturned andhismother was hurt. He let the horses loose,knowingthey would go back home.Grandpa saw the horses, andpromptly knewsomething was wrong. When he got there,Grandma hadhurt her leg inthe accident.
InDad's teens they were not so fortunateto have restroom facilities intheir home,buthadthe "John" outside. Anyway, weunderstoodwhere he was at this point. Mymother, Leona, andher parents hadjustbought themselves a new car andmotherjust had to show it to her favorite guy. Shecame over, and Dadsaw her from a distance.He didn't want her to see himcoming out ofthe John. He came out the door and startedgathering wood from the pile, then marchedup to the house. When they were alltogether Grandma asked, "Jim, why didyoubringgreenwood up? Besides, it's too hotto start a fire." Dadwas so embarrassedhecouldhave died.
As they were dating now, they spent alot of time with hisparents,playingpinochle
and eating chocolate cake. Grandma wasfamous for her cooking.
Inlater years Grandma and Grandpamovedinto lots of small communities;Roberts, Menan and Blackfoot, Idaho.Here, Howardlivedwith them, caring forthem until Grandma became very ill, thenthey came to stay withmyparents.
She hadwhat they then called "Dropsy."Her legs were swollenwith water. They
hurt so bad. Grandma spent her last yearssitting ina chair with her feet up,bucketsbeingplaced for the water to drain off herfeet and legs. Grandma passed away Nov.28, 1944, and Grandpa on Feb. 12, 1945.They say he died from a brokenheart, as thelove ofhis life had left him. He was afarmer andrancher, loving the land.

Clarissa Shelton HowardHatch
By Pauline HatchWeathers
Ideem it a great honor to be asked to tellyou about my earthly creators - my fatherandmother. It isparticularly warming totalk about the one who carriedme for 9
-months-and.bore-the-pains-ofmy-birtrvmy—- -
mother.
Iam telling you about Clarissa SheltonHowardHatch, the wife of George QuincyHatch, the daughter of James and JulietFackrellHowardandmother ofFloydQ.Hatch, Delia Hatch Streeper, Pheobe ArleanHatch, and Pauline HatchWeathers. Iamspeaking for all of her descendants whenIspeak about her.
She was the 7th childof James and JulietHoward. She was borninWoods Cross,Utah, onMar. 18, 1882, and christenedMay4, 1882. Ifmy mother were livingtoday shewouldbe, a great-great-great grandmother,truly a great lineage.
She died Feb. 26, 1948 at her home, 2hours after the funeral ofher third childArlean. Ithink she would have passed away
longbefore then had it not been for thepurpose that she remainhere on earth to seeto the needs ofher invaliddaughter that shebrought into this world. Funeral serviceswere held inthe old South BountifulWardChapel March 1, 1948.
Ithink it only proper that Irelate to yousomething of her philosophy and outlook onlife. Clarissa Hatchwas a faithful Latter-day Saint andwas a woman of great faith.She served unselfishly inevery call that wasmade ofher. She enjoyed working intheDaughters ofUtahPioneers, Mutual, SundaySchool and Relief Society. She enjoyedplaying the piano at home and the organ andpiano at church. She accompaniedpeople
88
when they sang. She also taught piano. Sheenjoyedhavingher family and friendsaround her.
One ofher great calls, Ibelieve, wasadministering to the sick, andwhat arigorous calling itwas. She cared for herinvaliddaughter Arlean for many, manyyears, week after week, her ownpleasuresdenied her that Arlean might enjoy thepleasures that other girls have. The lovingcare she bestoweduponher invaliddaughterthose many years endearedher to all whoknew her. ImarvelwhenIreflect uponherlife. How she couldaccomplish so muchwith such a handicap and still give the restofus all the love and attention we shouldhave. She hadgreat faith inDivineProvidence andwas very strict inallobservance of religious duties. She wasknownby her contemporaries anddescendants as a woman of great integrity,one willing to sacrifice that which wasrightfully hers rather than cause another tosuffer.
She was truly a free and cheerful giver.She was a lady of few words but anextremely deep thinker. Many is the timethat Ihave waited for a reply to an inquiryor question, impatiently waiting Imight add,but knowing full well she was criticallyevaluating her answer. Many sought her foradvice.
Iam glad Clarissa HowardHatchwasmy mother. She contributed to the selectionof the manImarriedand subsequently to the
childrenIbore. She made a greatimpression on my husband. Many times hehas said to me, "Pauline, of all the things Ilike about you, the things Ilike most are thevery things Isaw inyour mother." She willnot be forgotten.

Life Story ofPauline HatchWeathers
Iwas bornon Jan. 20 1925 at the L.D.S.hospital inSalt Lake City, Utah. Iwas the4th childof four childrenbornto ClarissaShelton Howardand George Quincy Hatch.Mybirthcame 18 years after Arlean, 20years after Delia and 22 years after Floyd. Iwas an unexpected surprise to my parents,but was lovedvery much. Ihadanextremely happy childhood, but was veryshy ingrade school until the 5th grade, whenIbroke out ofmy shell (so to speak).
Ienjoyed school andmy school yearsproduced a treasure trove ofbeautifulmemories. Because of time and space thesecannot be recalled, except for onemomentous occasion during myjunior yearinDavis High School. Itwas then and therethat Imet my High School Sweetheart,myfuture husbandand the father of our children(they were all the same person). ImetLewis GlenWeathers in 1942 when we werebothjuniors at Davis High. We datedthrough high school and thereafter, untilwewere marriedJuly 31,1946 at my brother'shouse inBountiful,Utah. Fromthatmarriage came our four children; Laraine(Hair) in 1947, Paula (Preston) in 1948,Glen in 1953, Joel in 1957,ninegrandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
After my marriage to Lewis (Luke), mylife has been continuously happy, rewarding,and a busy one. My husband's life wasgiven over to colleges and universities, firstas a student, then a Professor, and finally aDean. After earning a Ph.D. from theUniversity ofWisconsin in 1953,hejoinedthe faculty of the University of California atRiverside withjoint appointments at thecampuses at UCLA and Santa Barbara. Heretired from the University of California asProfessor Emeritus, anhonoredtitle he willholdthroughout his life. He receiveda greatdeal ofnotoriety inthe field ofVirology and
was subsequently rewardedwithscholarships from Guggenheim, Rockefeller,Fulbright andNATO foundations. Theseallowed us to travel to virus research centersthroughout the world.
Itried to meshmy own extensiveinterest to his andhelpedhimcarry out hisresponsibilities by opening our house tocolleagues and friends thoughout the world.
Ihave been active incharitable andservice organizations including; theBrownies, Girl Scouts, PTA (President andLifemember), Symphony Guild, UnitedFundand Heart Association; the universityfunctions including Campus Club, Town andGown, and UCRAffiliates. Iwas Primaryteacher of 4 years olds for many years andworked with the 12 and 13 year old girls inMIA inthe Victoria 2nd Ward inRiverside.
To be fair and to somewhat complete thepictureIshould characterize my father,George Quincy Hatch, and some of theroles he played inthe lives ofmy motherand me. He was botha land farmer andsheepherder inthe early days of theirmarriage inWoods Cross, Utah. Followingthe ravages of the cruel and deadlyDepressionhe was forced to supplement hisfarming responsibilities with otheremployment. He became custodian of theSouth Bountiful School in 1935 andworkedthere until the 1950's. Daddy playedthemandolin andpiano, was a great storytellerand somethingIremember well, was a greatsource of children's games at parties, picnicsand family gatherings. Iaccompaniedmyfather everywhere andhe always hadananimal pet for me to love and care for. Myfondest memories are those where Iwas myfather's companion. He andmother believedinfrequent family gatherings, a trait Ihaveinstilledinmy family.
93
My mother was always there to comfortand inspire me whenIneededher. She wasa great cook and homemaker andwellknown for her pies andbread. Ihada happyand wonderful childhood. Some would say Iwas coddled and spoiled. Luke andInowlive on a hill top overlooking the City ofRiverside. When we are not attendinguniversity functions, cruising, white waterrafting or attendingjazz festivals, Ispendtime watching my husbandraising unusualtropical and subtropical plants, andcultivating his cactus collection. Ourgreatest joy is interacting and enjoying ourchildren and grandchildren. We expect this
to continue for many years into themillennium.

Eugene (Gene) and MaudHowardLudwig
Maude Tamer HowardLudwig
When Maudwas born, Jan. 12, 1884,she was so precious and sweet. Her fathercouldn't resist giving her his sister's nameand she was christened Tamer Maude.
Maud's dislike for the farm was veryapparent. She was afraid to look at a cow,not even to mentionmilking one. Shealways hada goodreasonwhy she shouldn'tpractice on the piano or wash the dishes.She did all kinds ofbeautiful handwork,knitting and crocheting. Maudhad severaladmirers, including a few cousins whoinspiredher. They claimed she was theteacher's pet and they teased and calledherMrs. F.J. Pack.
Imet Eugene Ludwig at the Brickyard.He hadto pay his ownway and was workingthere for extra work. He attendedMutual
and walked home with me. He left theBrickyardwhen McDonaldCandy Companycalledhimand he worked at that job for 31years. At the time Imet Gene, IlivedinBountiful, andhe would come out and takethe Bamberger (railroadtrain) to get home.Sometimes he would hire a horse andbuggyto come out to see me. The last Bambergerwent home at 8:00 p.m. and ifhe missedthetrain, he would walk into Salt Lake.
We broke up once andIcouldn't eveneat. My father askedme where Gene wasandItoldhimIdidn't want to see himanymore. Father said, "What is wrong withGene?" Isaid that Ihadheardthings abouthim, andhe didn't have anything to say.Father advisedme by saying, "Youknow,Maud, such things as this you can suffer as adeath." The very next day Gene came back
98
and saidhe hadmissedme. Ioften wonderifFather hadnot askedhimto come. Iquitschool inJanuary, andwas married intheSalt Lake Temple.
Beinga very particular girl she didn'tmarry a mere man, but got herself a sweetman, and was a beautiful June bride on June17, 1903,when she and Eugene Ludwigsaid, " Ido."
Maud's outlook on Life:
Here's to my faith and testimonial,they're either too young or too old. I'vesearched invain for matrimonial, but mywinters seem too long and too cold. SisterJuliett was the oldest, and respectedby me.She was good andkindand trusted inGod.
Now Tillie's wedding receptionworkedme to the bone, and after her marriageTillie's made Idaho her home. IdislikedIdaho andIfinally found out why, itwasthere her brother Joe did die.
Iremember my brother Joe walkingdown the roadon the way home from theUniversity of Deseret. He diedwhen he wasjust 21 years of age. He was sick, and Tilliecame down from Idaho and talked Fatherinto lettinghimgo back with her. He diedthere andmy mother hated Idaho from thenon.
Iwas a very thrifty person. A budgetwas a must, andno matter what their salary,I'dsave something or bust.
Gene made $75.00 a monthwhen wewere married. Our first home was west on4th Northand our rent was $10.00 a month.Myhusband couldwalk to work. Fatherwantedhis children aroundhimandencouragedus to move to South Bountiful.We saved for a downpayment on a homeandmoved.
And now for the best part of her life;herfamily came, but not without strife.
My first two babies were bornat thehouse on West 4th Northand Les and Genewere born inSouth Bountiful. My first babylived24 hours. He was tiny. We didn'tdress him. We put himon a pillow by thestove. When he died friends from Bountifulcame andburiedthe baby with my Fathertaking charge.
Our secondbaby boy was borna yearlater. Cliffweighed about 3 lb. and we wereafraid we wouldn't keep him. Itwas such arelief to hear Dr. C.F. Wilcox say, "You'regoing to keep this one."
Les, the thirdbaby, was my healthiest,biggest baby. He was as fair as Cliffwasdark, andwe felt like we hada half-grownchildright from the first. Icontractedtyphoid fever while Icarried Gene. We hadDr. Middleton from Bountiful andhe wasconstantly consulting Dr.Allen inSalt Lake.We hadto hire a professionalnurse and thissickness surely set us back financially. Weset up the front room as the sick room andAunt Loutended Cliff and Les inthe back.At this time Ilearnedto drink milk with saltin it.
When Gene was two years old, AuntRachel andUncle Joe took the childrenwhile we movedto our new home at 850DowningtonAve. Our transportation wasby street car untilwe bought our first car, aMaxwell. We bought itbecause we felt wewere leaving our boys home too muchand ifwe hada car we could take them with us.
The first time we used the car was to goto the dedication of the Wasatch LawnCemetery. Daddy sang inthe RichardsWard Choir and they furnished the music forthe dedication
Yes, Maud, husband andboys madememories galore, with fishing, camping andball games by the score.
Itwas on a trip to Bear Lake when Maudgot mighty sick and soon after they learnedthey were to have a little boy.
When the Dr. told me we hada girl. Isaid "You don't have to tell me that. Iknowwe can only have boys." Then the dooropened andIsaw Daddy doing hand springsandIknew itwas a girl.
Blanche was the name we pickedfor herbut Grandpa Howardnamedher and addedmore.
"Father thought that after four boys andwaiting twelve years, our girl shouldhavemy name, Maud."
Cliff left for a missionto the NorthernStates from the Richards Ward, but camehome to a brandnew house inHawthorneWard._
"We movedto 825 BryanAvenuebecause we neededmore roomandbecausethey built the Richards Ward chapel rightnext door to us andIdidn't like everybodyknowing everything we were doing."
Les went to Germany serving a missionand Gene to the Northwest,but he hadanintermission. Itwas while he was servingthe Lordhis father was calledhome to serve.
Iwas eight years oldwhen thiscatastrophe came and ifit hadn't been forMother's strength, Inever would havestayed sane.
Mother kept busy, that's the story ofherlife. She made quilts and didhandwork, andkept me instride.
At this time Ilearnedhow muchherfamily meant to her. When things got bad,we went knocking on their doors. Aunt Loualways hadthe welcome mat out, andBountifulbecame a regular route. Leone,Clara and Jimhadgood listening ears andMother always felt goodwhenever theywere near.
Throughmy growing up years we foundsecurity there, knowingwe weren't alone,because our relatives really cared. Now shewas fortunate to have sons and daughters-in-law, too, who were always standingby tosee her problems through.
Mother took sick with shingles and washome alone, when Gene and Lola decidedshe should come to their home. "No, no,"said our Mother, "Iwon't be a burden.""Very well," saidher son, "we'll stay withyou that's for certain."
Les and Leilah, though far away, wereloving andhelpful inevery way. Why
-without-Leilah's-insisting, we'd never havehadthis picture of Mother, andwouldn't wehave felt bad? When her 80thbirthday wasabout to be spent this little lady to Idahowent.
Said she, "Now Blanche, they'll notcelebrate my birthday. They'll forget allabout itwhile I'maway." But Lola and Inezweren't so easily distracted. When they gother home, a part they enacted.
Let's listento the tribute Lolagave toMother, at a special Relief Society party inher honor.
"I amproudto have this opportunity tohonor my husband's Mother, whomIlovevery much. Her lot hasn't been easy, butIan sure no one couldhave been a moredevotedmother, or have beenmorecourageous inmeeting the challenge that
100
was hers to be both father andmother. Ifshe has a fault, it is that she has been toowilling to sacrifice and is too independent intrying to manage her own affairs. Ican onlysay that Iwould like a page out ofher bookwhen it comes to managing finances."
"She has beenwise, understanding andkindinher relationships with her marriedchildren. However, whenever we haveneededher, she has always been there tohelp. Personally,Iam especially gratefulfor her many kindnesses to me thoughout
our marriedlife. Iknow how muchher loveand faithful guidance has meant to myhusbandinhis life. Whenever she wasaskedher history to write this was heranswer, and itbecame quite trite. 'Ihaven'taccomplished anything inmy life. Just writedown that I'ma real good scrub woman.'"
I'msure you'll agree her memory liveson andher influence is felt even though sheis gone. And whether she's your AuntMaud, Grandmother or Mother, I'msureyou'll agree there'll never be another!

LudwigFamily History
Eugene C. Ludwigwas bornFeb. 9,1910 inWoods Cross, Davis Co., Utah.
He hadbeen attending classes for a yearwhen he was called to serve inthe NorthernStates Missionin 1929. After serving inthemission field for 7 months, on May 31,1930,he received a telegram informinghimthat his father haddied suddenly and tocome home immediately, whichhe did.Because of the financial strain onhismother, he never returnedto the missionfield, something he always regretted.However,he made up for it years later.
He hadbeen working part-time for DanS. Gardiner at his grocery store at 100 Southand 0 East, and Danhiredhimas a full-timeemployee for $16 a week. Not a badsalaryinthose days. Inhis biography, he says thathe was very grateful to Mr. Gardiner for thiswork. It is interesting to note that~one~ofhis-grandsons works at Dan's today.
Prior to leaving for the mission field,Gene met Lola Banks while participating inanMIAplay inthe Hawthorne Ward. Uponhis return, he found that she was goingsteady with another fellow and decided to"do something about that," and he did. Hegave her a diamondring. He says, " Ihadalways said it would be a cold day inJulybefore Igave a girl a ringandbelieve me itwas a cold, rainy day." Apostle George F.Richards marriedthem inthe Salt LakeTemple on October 19, 1932.
Lola at that time was working for theFederal LandBank ofBerkeley andmakingmore that he was. On Oct. 4, 1935, theirfirst son, Paul, was bom. They were sure noone ever hada cuter baby.
Then, in 1936, Gene was offered ajob atGeneral MotorsAcceptance Coiporation,which he accepted. They were transferredto Idaho Falls, Idaho. They were transferredback to Salt Lake in1939,just intime toreceive their son, John, who was bornOct.18, 1939. Soon after, they were transferredagain, to Logan, Utah. In1941,back to SaltLake City. On Jan. 5, Richardwas born.
InFebruary, 1946, they sold their homeandmovedto Burlingame, California, whereGene was made apartner ina furniturestore. Itwas there inBurlingame that Janewas bornAug. 20, 1947. Itwas also therethat Gene was called to be Bishop of theRedwoodCity Ward. However, at the sametime, Gene was offered ajob by WarrenPugh as Credit Manager for CumminsIntermountainDiesel Sales. He and Loladecided to accept this offer, so they leftCalifornia and movedback to "Zion." Indiscussing their decisionwith their StakePresident, he told them, "Don't worry aboutthe Bishop's call, youwill serve the Lordwherever you go."
InAugust of 1950, they movedinto theirhome at 1236 Lorraine Drive, where theyspent the remainder of their lives. He andLola were active members of the LDSChurch all their lives. Gene served asBishop of the Grant 7thWard for eighteenmonths. InJune of 1956, Gene was calledto be President of the Grant Stake, a positionhe served infor 13 years. He had little timeto rest, for inMay of 1969 to 1972, sixmonths after they arrived, Gene suffered amajor heart attack. While he wasrecovering, Lolamanagedthe mission for aperiodof six months. UponreturningfromNew Zealand in 1972, Gene was called to bePatriarchof the Grant Stake, a positionheheldfor the rest ofhis life.
106
Hepassed away onAugust 29, 1987 ofcongestive heart failure. He is buried inWasatch LawnMemorial Park on 30thSouth and HighlandDrive inSalt Lake City,Utah. At the time ofhis death, he was amember of the Grant 7thWard.He and Lolahad four children;PaulEugene Ludwig, JohnBanks Ludwig, RichardHowardLudwig, andMaryJane Ludwig. At the timeofhis death, he and Lolahad seventeen grand¬children and three great¬grandchildren. His son,Paul,precededhim indeathby twelve years (Aug. 11,1975).
Gene was an amazingman, a wonderful and kindand loving father,grandfather and great¬grandfather. He was full ofwisdom and compassion.

Luella HowardDavis
LuellaHowardwas the eleventh childofa family of twelve children. Her father was adairyman and often took Luellawithhimwhen he went to deliver milk inSalt LakeCity. She was delighted to go because heusually bought her a bag of candy. Hermother was afraid she would become aspoiledbaby with so much attention fromher father and older sisters andbrother.
When she was eight years old, her fathertook her through the field west of the houseto a creek to be baptized. She oftenremarkedhow cold the water was andhowgrateful she was to be wrapped ina blanketfor the walk back home.
Because of the manpower shortage inthe family as she hadonly one livingbrotherat home, she was expected to work intheorchard and garden. She cut potatoes for
-planting,-harv-estedÿegetables-andJfruits,-and canned them for winter. Beingnext tothe youngest childof a large family, she wasoften calleduponto help her older marriedsisters when they hadtheir babies. Shecooked, nursed them, and cleaned theirhomes. Many times she stayed severalweeks with them giving them aid.
She attended school inBountiful andstudied for two years at the L.D.S.University inSalt Lake City. This sheloved. Itwas not a common thing for awoman to receive that opportunity. She alsolovedmusic and studiedpiano and organ.She was a ward organist inthe SouthBountifulWard.
When she was fifteen years old, she mether future husband, DavidFranklinDavis,who was a city boy from the "Big City" ofSalt Lake. This was not well received at
first even though Frank's cousin, JosephDavis, was courting Luella's sister andintroducedFrank to the family. Age wasprobably the biggest barrier with hersixteen, you do everythingyou can to seeeach other. This was long distant courting,at least ten miles with no phones andtransportation by horse andbuggy or evenby foot ifnecessary.
At the age of sixteen, DavidDavis, Jr.came to visit the Howardfamily with hiscousin Joseph Davis, who was courtingLuella's sister Rachel. When the two youngmenarrived, Luellawas standing inthefront yardwith her arms full of lilacs, hergolden-blonde hair cascading over hershoulders inringlets and tied with a largeredribbon. Young Frank was greatlyattracted to her andbeggedher mother toallow her to go with them for a buggy ride.Her mother thought she was too young,being fifteen years old, but finally permittedher to go. Fromthat time on, Frank was a-
frequent visitor to the Howardhome. Heused every methodhe could find to travelthe ten miles distance from his home in SaltLake City to South Bountiful;bicycle,horseandbuggy, the Bamberger train, andevenhis own two feet. The methodhepreferredwas the horse andbuggy. "He usedto laughandtell how he hadit over ourgeneration, with automobiles, because aftera late date he could give the horse the reinsand let the horse take him safely home whilehe slept inthe buggy."
A year after they met, knowinghe lovedher andwas too young to ask her to marryhim, accepted a call to serve a mission forthe Church to the Netherlands. He wasseventeen, a pretty young age to leave homefor three years and live ina foreign country.
114
To help Luellato remember him whilehe was gone he gave her a gold locket with adiamond on the front of it. She wore thelocket under her blouse because she knewher mother thought she was too young to beformally engaged. Ina large family Idon'tthink ithadmuch chance ofnot being seenduring a three-year period of time. Frankalso kept the mailmanbusy delivering lettersandmementos to her while he was on hismission. He hopedto discourage the manyadmirers at home so they would not steal heraway.
The missioncall gave Frank and Luellagrowing up time and was a great blessingfor them. Inour possession is an originalhandwritten letter from Frank to Luellawhen he hadseven months left beforecoming home. Itwas dated Brussels, Sept.28-09. It sounded as ifhe was getting a bit"trunky." He asked "Lue" if she were takingFrenchinschool and if so, "Iwill bring abunchof Frenchbooks home with me andyou can readthem to me while we sit by thestove-and-Hsten-to-the-old-east-w-md-tear——Bonneville to pieces."
He also commentedwhat a struggle itwas to learn French. He saidhe wasworking at it on "all fours." He apparentlywas trying very hardbut also commented, "Ican't talk Dutchfor sour apples anymore.I'llnot be able to talk any language goodafter awhile." He then let his feeling forhome come out by saying, "The longer Istayover here the moreIwant to get back to'Howard's farm' as you like to call it. Itseems like a second home. It is the home ofthe better halfofmy life for my life isworthless indeedwithout you init,Darling(he capitalized the word darling). Inaboutseven months I'llpack my trunk the last timeandwill shoot it at the Rockies. Iwon't befar behind it either."
The Howardand Davis families werestalwarts inthe Church. Itmust have pleasedboth families to have Frank and Luellamarry inthe Salt Lake Temple on June 22,1911. Itwouldmean a great deal to thesefamilies. The Salt Lake Temple hadonlybeen inuse for fourteen years andwas amonument to the faith of the Saints to havecompleted the building after forty years oftoil and sacrifice.
Courtship endedwith marriage and theraising of a family. The church was a partof Luella's life. Wherever she went, hermusical ability was needed. She taught inall the Church organizations; Primary,Sunday School, Relief Society and theM.I.A. She lovedRelief Society andreceived a pinfor serving twenty-five yearsas a visiting teacher.
Having developed a trade before hismissionand apparently havingbuilt up thetools needed, Frank probably went back towork with his Father at the foundry. HenoW-Workedwitha_different.piirpose.thanbefore his mission.
After they were married, they went toAnaconda, Montana, where Frank wasemployed ina copper mill. We can assumethat he was a patternmaker at the mill. Thepatternmakers would have a white shirtwith a tie and an apron. The shirtsleeveswould have a black sleeve to the elbow.This seems to be the standard way ofdressing for that trade. Itwas with a greatdeal of skill to be a patternmaker along witha goodunderstanding ofmathematics andthe ability to visualize objects from allangles, to reproduce it inwood so that a"pattern" was made to make a metal cast.
Itmust have been lonely to be awayfrom family, especially for Luella, who hadnever beenvery far away from home. Frank

hadbeen onhis own for three years andhadmade the break with the family. They hadeach other and for newly marriedthis wasall that really counted. They also hadtheChurch. They found the winter wasextremely hardand cold and they missed thecompanionship of their families so theyreturnedto Salt Lake City andbuilt a homeinthe HighlandPark area of the city.
Itwas while inSalt Lake that they hadtheir first two children; Majjorieborn 13Sept. 1913; and Irene was one montholdwhen the folks moved the family toSpringville, Utah. Frank managedtheBonneville Lumber Co .
They loved Springville, and couldhavestayed there for the start of their lives. Butthe events would change their lives asAmerica became involvedinWorldWar 1.We have their registrationcard that hereceived as he registeredfor the draft "inaccordance with the proclamation of thePresident of the United States." This was
-dated-5-June-l-91-7-The-famiiy-thenmoved—to San Francisco where Frank worked for ayear-and-a-half for the UnionIronWorksbuilding ships for the war effort. Frank wasBranchPresident of the Church there.
Luella lovedto go to the beach andspend hours enjoying the waves and theseals. They hadadditional reason to returnto the Bay area because their daughter Irenelivedinthe area with her two children.Shortly after the armistice on 11Nov. 1918,Frank and Luella and family returnedto SaltLake where they remaineduntiljust prior totheir death. They movedto Bountiful,across the street from their son Ralph.While livinginSugar House, the two boyswere bomto them. There Frank was wardclerk to Bishop LeGrandRichards.
Frank turned to teaching, which requireddiligent self-study since he hadn't completedhigh school. He enrolled at the UniversityofUtahand gained a teaching certificate. Inthose days a degree was not requiredbut aprescribed course of study would leadto ateaching certificate. He taught for fiveyears.
Ralphwouldparticipate inanother lovehis mother had; that was to go shopping indowntown Salt Lake. Lue never learnedtodrive a car so we went on the "street car" orlater onby bus. She would start at one endofMain Street at ZCMI and downmainwewould go, inand out of shop after shop, andhe wouldbe tagging along, holding on to hismother's hand. She always hadhimwelldressed and she was always ina dress andwearing a hat. This was a whole dayadventure and the highlight for himwas tohave lunch somewhere along the route. Hisfather hadhis business on third south and sosometimes ifitwere close to closing timewe would endup at his office to go homewifh-him; She would-tiy on-hats by-the hourinstore after store. Another was a wintercoat. It seemed to me that she bought a newcoat every year. The last thing was lookingfor a "corset" (a girdle). To cross the streetwas a ritual. Iwas always told to take holdof mother's bandor her little finger.
Mymother was a good cook. She grewup helpingwith the cooking for a largefamily. One thing that Ialways likedwas tovisit my cousins and eat at their housebecause their mothers bakedbreadandrolls.
Visiting relatives was done frequently. Iamtold that whenIwas a baby, motherwould come out to visit her father and thathe would always know that "Luie pal" hadbeenhere because she was the only one thatcould fluff up his feather bedlike he wanted.He was alone for about two years after
116
Grandma Howarddied andhis daughtersdoted onhim.
The telephone was busy each day withcalls to each sister inthe area. Itwas almostlaughable the way Aunt Maudand motherwould talk together. You could almost setyour watch by the calls. There was acloseness betweenthe sisters.
Visits to Idaho and Wyoming. This wasalmost a regular summer experience. Theyalso gather frequently with their husbandsfor special occasions andhave dinner. Afavorite place to gather was at Aunt Leona'sbecause she livedinthe family home. Itmust have felt like touching base with thepast to gather there.
When you went to visit Aunt Leila inThayne, Wyoming, itwas a step back intothe past. She livedon a ranchinthisbeautiful loghouse with aporchthat wentaroundpart of the house. The mostdelicious meals would come off that wood
_cnotsto3ze_.J__can_stillÿee.mys_el£gelting_a_Saturday night bath ina washtub inthemiddle of the kitchen floor with buckets ofwater heating on the stove. We city cousinslovedthe ranch and the animals, besides thatthey would take us fishing.
Mother caught her handinthe wringerofher washing machine and tore it up prettybadly. It caught her by surprise as she waspushing sheets through the wringer. It tookher a moment to react before she pushedtherelease lever. The natural reactionwas totry to pullher handout of the wringer,which only increased the damage. The handwas bandaged for weeks but she recoveredand seemed to have hadgood use ofherhandfor the rest ofher life.
Mother was seldom sick but thisaccident slowedher down and made usappreciate all that she did for us. She spent
some time inthe hospital for treatment ofcancer. They gave her radiationby usingsmall rods of radioactive metalplacedinthebody. This was a new procedure at thattime. It seemed to work. The cancer neverreoccurred.
Itwas just a few weeks after Father'sdeath that she went to the temple to beadministered to. Grandfather hadbeen anordained temple worker since its dedicationandhadusually helpedinthe administration.Mother was feeling badbecause ofhis deathas well as having the worry and suffering ofthat dreaded disease. She neededhelp andour heavenly Father was the only one whocould comfort andbless her.
Frank was specializing incommercialphotography. His customers couldnolonger advertise the products they made asthey were producing war goods. There wereso few civilian goods available andwithrationing of various kinds they no longercoulduse his services.
This ledFrank into another career. Heapparently haddeveloped a great deal ofskill indrafting andmathematics. As hisbusiness went to nothinghe went to workfor Stokermatic Co. of Salt Lake City, whowas one ofhis former customers. This wasa manufacturer of coal- burning stokers thatfeed coal into a furnace automatically. Theytook on the manufacturing of war goodssuch as lockers and storage cabinets to gointo ships. They hiredhim to be a part ofthe drafting team to design these productsandmake the working drawings for themanufacturingof the products.
The Emico Corporation inSalt Lake,who hadbeen one ofFrank's largestcustomers, hiredhim as their privatephotographer. They built hima studio andprovidedthe supplies and equipment. This
117
continued for a number of years untilhecouldno longer carry the heavy cameraequipment around. Emico movedhim to theengineering department where he served thecompany faithfully untilhis retirement at theage of 71.
My father never likedportrait work. Healways would send us to a portraitphotographer for our formal pictures andheandmother would also have their picturestakenby someone else. Mother didn't likeher picture to be taken and didn't like acamera pointedat her.
Beinga commercial photographer hehadsome interesting customers. SweetCandy Co. was one particularly Iliked. Inthe summer was the time when these largeboxes, which heldabout 35 to 50 pounds ofcandy, would come to the studio to bephotographed. Frank wouldbuilda displayarea and arrange these colorfulboxes ofcandy andphotographthem so that thesalesmen could show customers the products
-they~had-w-ithout-carry-ing-Gand-y-withthem-.—A particular candy that was Ralph'sdownfall was a peanut cluster. He could eatseveral pounds of them a day .
One assignment that pleasedmy fatherandprobably was one ofhis favorites waswhen he was askedby the TempleCommittee of the Church, inJan 1937, tophotographthe inside of the Salt LakeTemple. IfIrecalledthe situation correctlythere was someone who hadtried toblackmail the Churchby threatening topublishpictures of the inside of the Templethat he claimedto have taken with hiddencameras. Frank did a meticulousjob andwith proper lighting got high qualitypictures and they were publishedintheChurchmagazine. There hadbeen someofficial pictures taken earlier, about 1911,
but not of the quality of these prints that hehad done.
Another love Luellahadwas being amember of the Daughters ofUtahPioneers,serving as secretary, treasurer, andhistorianand Vice-Captain inthe LincolnWar Camp.Ican remember coming home from schooland frequently having the house full ofwomen with a D.U.P Meeting. Iwould callthem the "daughters."
Luellawas a wonderful homemaker, andenjoyed doing needlework. She didbeautiful crocheting, embroidery andneedlepoint. She tried to make a gift ofneedlework for every child and grandchildbefore she found her eyesight andhandsfailing with age. Her home was always inperfect order; infact some ofher friends andrelatives have remarkedthat Luella's homewas so clean you could eat off the floor. Iremember coming inthe house after motherhadwaxed the floor andpolishedit andfinding newspapers down inthe traffic areasso-that-I-wouldn't scuftup the floor. Theydidn't have the modern floor cleaners andwaxes that do the job inone operation. Itwas a lot ofwork to clean and wax andpolishthe wax with a heavy polisher.
When only fifteen years old, Maijorie,the oldest child and daughter, died (1928).This brings heartbreak and Ralphcanremember father saying, "It bringsremorse for some of the things youhave saidand done." He toldme that one thing he feltso badabout was making a fuss overMaijorie using too much soap inthedishpan. He said that he felt badto havebeenupset over such an insignificant andmeaningless event. Yet as we look back inour own lives how many of those samekinds of things have we beenguilty of?
118
One of the things Iremember so wellabout my father, and expressedby otherfamily members, was that he moved quicklyandwas witty andhadan outstanding senseofhumor and a warm chuckle. He hadabrilliant mindand lovedto readand study.He was calleduponoften to expounduponprinciples of the Gospel. He hada specialwarmth andrapport with children, his own,his grandchildren, nieces andnephews andall that knew him.
Itwas with a great deal of sadness thatwe saw a change inthis man as Parkinson'sdisease took over his body. With therigidity ofhis limbs, the little steps that werea shuffle, and the sparkle that radiated fromhim had left him. Itbrought great painto allofus to see this progressive disease takeaway his normal actions. Itwas particularlysad for mother who hadmost of theresponsibility for his care. Itwas not easyand very frustrating to deal with theproblem. He would fall even when usinghiswalker andbeing so rigidhe couldn't get up
The house they livedinon Roosevelt Ave.was a two story house. Itwas not aconvenient place for the care of apersoninhis condition.
He hada spiritual experience at this timewhen he was so ill. Elder LeGrandRichardshadblessedhim. Mother said that ElderRichards' blessingwas so powerful with thespirit, that she fully expected to see Frankget up andwalk. After remaining ina comafor a few days, one morninghe awakenedand got up and sat inhis chair inthebedroom. He then toldmother, andIbelieve Irene was there, that he hadgone to
the other side. He said he was met by a
personwhom he didnot recognize. Theperson said, "Youhave a choice. You maycome now, or youmay remain for a time,but you will suffer greatly ifyou stay."Father told this personhe didn't want toleave Mother andwanted to stay. Inourselfish ways some of us inthe family hadwished he hadgone on, for during the nextsix years he didhave serious anddebilitatingproblems,but,his love for hiseternal companion allowed them to serveeach other. We cannot measure what thatsix years' experience brought to them incomfort, service and closeness. It isinteresting that a choice was given, andIbelieve that the choice either way was ablessing that will be recognized intheeternities to come.
During the last few years ofmy father'slife he was illandmother hadtheresponsibility to care for him. Itwas donewith love and concern. Inher PatriarchalBlessing it states that she would nurse thesiek-and she fulfilled-this fully-during her —-life andparticularly during those last yearsof father's life.
Eventhough Mother herselfwas not inthe best of health, she received a blessingfrom her Bishop that she would have thehealth and strength to take care ofherhusband, and this blessinghas been fulfilledwith her being able to serve himto the end.He died six years later, a few days before his79th birthday, on 4 Mar. 1969. Apparentlyhe diedmuchlike his father except at amuch older age. Father was eating his lunchand collapsed into his food.

LEONA HOWARDARBUCKLE
James Howard, the third son of Josephand Ann Shelton Howard, was born Jan. 29,1846, at Warwickshire, England. He arrivedinthe Salt Lake Valley in 1864, and latermarriedJuliett Fackrell onApril 19, 1869.Juliett was bornJan. 19, 1849 at Jo DavisCounty, Illinois. She was the daughter ofJoseph Crumb and Clarissa DempseyFackrell. Juliett and her parents immigratedto Utahwith the Biglow Company, arrivinginthe spring of 1852.
James and Juliett livedinWestBountiful the first year of their married life.InApril of 1870 they movedinto the logcabin they hadbuilt inSouth Bountiful onHoward Street (now known as 500 NorthMain,NorthSalt Lake). A few years laterthey built a two-story adobe home next tothe log cabin, and livedat this locationwhile raisingtheir twelve children.
Their daughter, Leona, was born intheadobe house inSouth Bountiful, on Jan. 21,1894. Eventhough she was the eighthdaughter and twelfth child, muchexcitementprevailed inthe home at the arrival of thisbeautiful new sister. Leona's sister Maud,who was only ten years of age at the time,often told ofhow happy they all were tohave this new baby inthe home andwhat afuss they allmade over her. EvenLeonawould agree that she was probably spoiled abit as she grew up. Her father lovinglycalledher "Onie".
Leonahad a habit of suckingher thumb,andvery often after a meal she would slidedown under the big square table anddisappear. Father would say, "Onie, are yousucking your thumb?" Very quickly thethumb wouldbe pulledout and she wouldanswer, "No".
Leona's mother, Juliett, was an excellenthomemaker and good organizer. She lovedcaring for her family andhome, saw that thegirls were all taught how to keep a nicehome, learn the art ofneedlework,properdress, manners and the importance ofdeveloping their talents.
Not all of the girls' activities were insidethe home. Their father, James, was asuccessful dairyman and farmer. He neededtheir help outside also. Four boys were bomto this unionbut three of them died two atone year of age and one at 22. Joe was astudent at the College of Deseret when hedied. This left only their brother James toassist with the dairy farm, so the girls hadtohelp. None of them likedit and they hatedlearninghow to milk the cows. Leonatoldmany times ofhow her sister Clara wouldalways have to practice her piano lessonwhen there was work to be done, and thatwas how she got to play the piano so well.
When Leona was four years of age, herfather left on a two year mission. He went toEnglandfor the Church of Jesus Christ ofLatter-Day Saints. Juliett and childrenhadto look out for themselves andmake out thebest way they could until James returned.
An intelligent woman, Leonabeganhereducation at South Bountiful#2 ElementarySchool (whichwas located across the streetfrom the old Burtenshaw home, now 785North, 400 East,North Salt Lake). Sheended her formal education with three yearsat the L.D.S. College inSalt Lake City.While majoring inmusic, Leonahad abeautiful voice and took vocal lessons underthe direction of Professor Charles Kent.With her sister Rachel at the piano, Leonalovedto sing and entertain. Her voice was so
"ÿ'W
beautiful; she earned a seat intheTabernacle Choir.
Father James took great pride inhisdaughters and always saw that they lookedattractive. Leona toldof the trips to SaltLake City inthe buggy to buy some newclothes at the Z.C.M.I. (Zion's CooperativeMercantile Inc.) department store. She alsorememberedthat she was hardto please.
Enjoying dressing alike, Luella andLeona were inventive and vivacious. Theyoung menwere attracted to them and theynever lacked for admirers. The dates werealways under the close scrutiny of theirfather. He wanted to make sure that theyoung menwho came courting his daughterswere honorable and respectable. FatherJames would not allow a deck ofplayingcards inhis home, and often toldvisitors hisrule. Itwas difficult for Leona and Luellatostay inthe roomandkeep a calm collectedexpression. They hada deck of cards hiddeninthe piano. Ifthey were playing cards, and
the tablecloth over the card game, andinnocently lookbusy.
James was the Stake patriarch, and whengiving blessings to others would have Leonaand Luella act as his scribes. They would sitbyhis side andwrite down inlonghandtheblessings as they were given.
After a hard day's work, itwas notunusual for Leona and Luella to heat the flatirononthe coal stove andpress their dressesand full petticoats to get ready for a dance.Then they would walk three miles to Hale'sHall. Hale's Hallwas the popular dance hallat that time and was located at what is now200 West and 500 South inBountiful.Richardand Lucy Purcellwere running thedance hall at that time. Lucy was one oftheir older sisters.
When Dr. EvanTaylor was about 80years of age, he was reminiscingwith Jeanand told how well he rememberedhermother. "She was a good dancer, attractiveand fun. Everyone lovedto hear her laughbecause she had such a happy laugh." Hefelt his night at a dance was never completeuntilhe hada dance with Leona. Because allthe fellows wanted to dance with her, itwasdifficult to work ina turn.
One night she hada date with FredGarrett. As they left the dance and she wasascending into the buggy, the elastic aroundthe waist ofher petticoat broke and thepetticoat fell to the ground. She simplyignoredthe whole embarrassing incident andclimbed into the buggy. When they got tothe door ofher home, Fredhandedher thecarefully folded petticoat. Nothingwas said.
Leonahada couple of serious romances,but itwasn't until Emer Arbuckle came intoher life that she was convinced to go to thealtar. One day,- she took her-horse over to ablacksmith shop inWoods Cross to have itshod. The blacksmithwas a good lookingyoung manwho seemed more interested inher than he was inshoeing the horse. Afteran introduction, they found out each other'snames and that she livedinSouth Bountifulandhe livedinEast Bountiful. Itwasn't longafter that until they started dating. Emerwith his horse, Frank, andbuggy, were afamiliar sight at the Howardresidence.
InNovember of 1910,Emer left for theNorthern States Mission. Leona datedwhilehe was gone, but inher heart she knew Emerwas the one she wanted and she waited forhis return. Emer was released inAugust,1912 to come home for an appendectomy.They were marriedinthe Salt Lake TempleJan. 29, 1913. Leonahada sister, Rachel,livinginSalt Lake City. The night before
129
their marriage they stayed with Rachel andJoe Davis inorder for them to get to theTemple on time the next morning. After themarriage ceremony they climbed into thebuggy and "OldFrank" brought them safelyto the James Howardhome where thewedding receptionwas held. Ithadtaken thefull day, but Leona was not too tired to singfor the small family wedding reception.
The first year of their marriage theylivedinthe EphraimHatchhome inWoodsCross. Duringthis time their first child, adaughter, Jean, was born. Itwas during thispregnancy that Leona hada very traumaticexperience that affectedher entire lifetime.She heardperfectly one day and the nextmorningwoke up to no hearing. Thedoctors said that the ear drum wasdestroyed, possibly caused from thediphtheria and scarlet fever she had as achild. Tonsils and adenoids were removed.Everything that couldpossibly be done forher was tried throughout the years butnothingrestoredher hearing. Years later shewas toMThafthe type ofTiearmg loss she~had~very often occurred duringpregnancy.Leona's hearing loss was a real heartache forher, especially when she hadto give up hersinging.
A few months after Jean's birththeymovedto Salt Lake City where Emer foundemployment inthe baggage department atthe Railroad, and also at John M.Knight'sAuto and Carriage Shop. They movedbackto Bountiful intime to welcome a babydaughter, Lucile, into their home, Sept. 17,1916.
Their dream of Emer havingablacksmith shop ofhis own didnot last long.Shortly after their returnto Bountiful, wherethey livedinpart of the house with Emer'smother, Sarah, he took very illwith stomachulcers. While recuperating, he worked on
Jim Briggs' Dairy farm. Leona, Emer andtheir two daughters livedon the Briggs placewhile he worked there. Itwas locatedinWoods Cross on what is now knownas 1800West, between 1500 and 2600 South.
They moved from the dairy farm to theParley Hatchhome inSouth Bountiful. Itwas difficult for Emer to find ajob thatwould give hima livable salary. He was ahardworker andwilling to take any kindofwork ifitwould provide the needs ofhisfamily. He worked for Mountain StatesFeeding Co., Cudahy Packing, sold FullerBrushes and served as water master forBonneville Irrigation.
WorldWar Ibroke out. Neighbors andfriends came down with the dreaded fluwhich was taking so many lives. Maskswere worn to prevent spreading the disease.Congress passed a billwherein all menbetweenthe ages 18 and 45 must be draftedto help with the war. Emer receivedhis draftnotice but before he hadto leave, peace wasdeclared inNovember of 1918. InMay of1918, Leona's sister Rachel died. They hadbeenvery close and this was difficult forLeona to accept.
On Oct. 14, 1920, the family was joyfulover the arrival of their first son. When thisbeautifulbaby was only a mere two weeksold, a neighbor came to see himandbroughther children. Emer noticedthe childrencoughing a great deal and asked the motherto take them home,but the damage wasdone. The baby hadbeen exposed towhooping cough. Jean, Lucile and the babyJames all came down with the whoopingcough. A quarantine sign was placedon thefront door. Itwas a coldwinter with lots ofsnow. Dr. Kesler would drive down fromBountiful inhis buggy andhorse to see ifthere was something he could do for thesesick children. Jean and Lucile would stand
130
at the window waiting for him. They knewhe couldhelp them. Their beds were placedinthe livingroomaround the heater so theycouldkeep warm. The livingroomandkitchenwere the only rooms inthe housethat hadheaters. The bedrooms were all sovery cold. The girls were older and strongerthan the tiny baby brother and theyrecovered. It looked for awhile that babyJames would get well, but the whoopingcoughweakened him so that he hadnoresistance, andpneumonia set in. On themorning of Jan. 2, 1921, the girls woke upto find the Christmas tree hadbeen taken outandbaby James andhis crib were gone. Hehadpassed away during the night. Theheartache was difficult to overcome.
Soon after the baby's death, the Salterhome, locatedjust north of Leona's parents,became vacant. Her parents were getting upinyears, andneeded some help now andthen. Emer and Leona and family werelivingthere when their third daughter,Norma, was bornonNov. 22, 1921.Ohhow
~Grandpa~lwedi:ha1rbaby!He-was-asked-to-—bless her and give her the name ofNorma,but when the time came to give her thename, he calledherNormaLeona.
InSeptember of 1922, Emer receivedemployment at the Denver & Rio GrandeRailroad and continuedworking there untilhe retiredat age 65 inApril of 1954. Heretiredafter 32 years of service. Although itwas heavy, tiring work, itbrought securityto the family to have a regular paycheckcoming in.
InMarchof 1924, Juliett Howard,Leona's mother, passed away and leftGrandfather James, 78, to live alone. Hisdaughter, Juliett, andher son, Joe, came tolive with himfor awhile. When they left,Grandfather decidedhe wanted Emer, Leonaand family to move inwithhimandhelp
him out. They built two rooms onthe backof the home andmovedin. Eachhadtheirownprivacy because Grandpa livedinthefront of the home and the family livedintheback part and the upstairs.
Inthe late afternoon ofNov. 16, 1925,Daddy Emer told the three girls they were togo over to Aunt Clara's home for a visit.When they returnedhome later that evening,they found a baby brother lying inbedbeside their mother. Dr. Jewel Trowbridgehadbeen there andbrought the new baby.He wasn't exactly what the sisters thought abrother would look like, sort of tiny andwrinkled, but they thought he was prettynice anyway. He was called Emer Howard.
Livingto the side of James Howard, theGrandfather and Patriarch,provedto be amost memorable andhappy experience forthose of the family who were old enough toremember him. He was a very wise person,also kindandpatient. He stood firm inhisconvictions andnot hesitant incriticizingwrong doings. As one maid said ofhim. "liewas the most honest personIever knew."James Howardhada strong testimony of thegospel, served inthe Bishopric andwas aPatriarch. Norma was grandfather's shadowandhe lovedher beingwithhimwhereverhe went. One spring morning, the four-year-oldNormawent to call her Grandpa for hisbreakfast and found him "asleep." He haddied inhis sleep onApril 19, 1926.
On October 8, 1927,Dr. Trowbridgereturned again, this time to bringa baby girl,the fourth daughter and last childto Emerand Leona. She had sisters old enough tomake a real fuss over her. Jean wasattending Junior HighinSalt Lake City andwould bringher friends out to stay at herplace so they could see the new baby sister,who was know as Joyce.

'ÿllllf
Itwasn't long after Joyce's birth, thatEmer and Leona felt their way clear to getmoney to remodel the home and give them afew conveniences. Plumbingwas put inthehouse and abathroomwas added. That wasa welcome addition. Up until that time, allthe water that was usedhadto be carriedinto the house from the well outside. Inthewinter, the pump would freeze up and wouldhave to be thawed out before getting thewater. The drinking water was pouredinalarge bucket andplacedon the wash stand inthe kitchen. A longhandled dipper was hungon the side of the bucket and anyonewanting a drink, drank from the dipper. Thewater for bathing was brought in,heated onthe coal stove inthe copper boiler and largetea kettle. Itwas then poured into the roundtin tub inthe middle of the kitchen floor.The long legged underwear was placed onthe chair andblankets were hung around thetub inorder to gain a little privacy and toprevent the bather from having a suddenchill when someone would open the kitchendoor and let the coldbreezes in. Water washauledinfor the family wash and onceagain the boiler would be filled. Leonawould cut up the bars ofbrownhomemadesoup. Water was extremely hard, so lye hadto be added to soften it enough to get thesoap to lather. Then the thick scum ofhardwater would be skimmed off and itwasready for the laundry. Rainand snow wasalways saved to get soft water forshampooing the hair.
A laundry roomwas added onto the backof the house. One hadto go outside to gainentry to it and there was no heat init, so inthe winter Emer wouldbring the washer intothe kitchenon wash day before he wouldleave for work. There was the washer andtwo laundry tubs for rinsing inthe middle ofthe floor, but that was an improvement overwhat they hadknowninthe past. There hadbeen the day when the washer was not
electric and turns were taken to pushthe rodback and forth to turn the dolly inorder toagitate the clothes to get them clean. Thewash boardwas usedto scrub the dirtierclothes and itmanaged to take the skin offthe knuckles as they went up and down overthose bumps. When Howardwas born, Emerhireda woman to help inthe home,but sherefused to wash the diapers. She felt that a12 year oldwas oldenough to take care ofthe job so Jean was elected. The wash tuband scrub boardwere set up on a benchoutside and Jean learnedhow to washdiapers.
Besides getting the water inevery night,the children hadto make sure there wasplenty ofwood and coal to start the fires thenext morning. Although this assignment wasdelegated out for turns, it seemed that "goodoldDad" endedup doing itmost of the time.
The Depressionyears from 1928 throughthe early thirties were not easy years. Theywere years of great stress and sacrifice and astruggle foTtlTe wholefamily,but they didnot suffer. They hadenough to eat andclothes to wear. A vegetable garden wasplantedoutside and the vegetables were putina pit so they would last all winter. Thecow furnished all the milk,butter, cottagecheese and cream they needed. They hadchickens andpigs. A calf andpigwerekilledinthe fall andhung outside to cure tofurnish the meat for the winter. Everyonelovedthe head cheese Leonamade. It shouldbe said that the young ones didn't approve ofhead cheese.
The girls were dressedwith made-overclothes, andpeople didwonder how Emercould dress his girls so well. Emer's oldestsister, Gertrude, who hadnot married,wouldhanddownher used clothes. They were stillingood condition and they would be madeover for the girls to wear. Petra Hatch, who
132
was a widow with three children, was morethan glad to get the money for altering theseclothes. PetraHatchand Leona spent many-days unpickingand sewing to make coatsand dresses. Leona cookedmany meals forPetra andher children because they didn'thave enough food intheir house. Howardseemed to be the one who ratedthe newclothes because the girls' handme downshardly seemed appropriate for little brother.
Itwas goodto have a nice livingroomwith a new "heatrola" init,but the diningroom seemed to be the gatheringplace forall andhadthe heater everyone likedmost.The bedroomupstairs could get awfully coldinthe winter, so the girls would undressaround the heater and then runupstairs to abedwhere they hadplaceda hot iron,hotbrick, or hot water bottle into warm it up.The outside john was soon ignoredwhen theinside toilet was put inthe new bathroom.
In1947,Leona and Emer really felt likethey were going modern. A gas range was
"1nsta11MTri~the~kitcheffto~makeLeona'scooking a little easier. A gas furnace wasinstalledinorder for them to have centralheating. Because the heat ducts hadto beinstalledinthe ceiling, they were not able toget the rooms as warm as they would haveliked,but it was a great improvement overwhat they hadbefore.
The older girls all remembered thesacrifices their mother made to see that theylookednice when they went to school andout inpublic. They all remembered thepaper and cardboard that was put intheirmother's shoes to cover the holes inthe solesso she wouldn't walk on the ground. Therewas not enough money for children's shoesandmother's too, so she would get by.Many times, she hadto stay home becauseshe didn't have clothes good enough to goout in. She made sure the children and Emer
lookednice because they hadto get out forschool and church assignments.
Leona taught her family to always beneat and clean and told them that even newclothes didn't look attractive ifthey were notpressedwell andwere not clean. They wereremindedto shine their shoes. As each girlgrew old enough, she hadto learnhow toclean the house, iron,wash andhelp withthe cooking, which was done on the coalstove. She would say to the girls: "Now thefirst thing you should do eachmorning is tosee that the beds are made, the dishesclearedup andwashed, clothes hungup andthings pickedup. That way the home willlook presentable even though you don't havetime for any more cleaning during the day."Friends andrelatives who came to stay atthe home always commented on the freshcleanbedding. Leona also kept a clean,attractive home and children were taught tohelp keep furnishings ingood condition.They were never allowed to jump on thesofa or chairs or mar the furniture. She madethe most of what she had. ----———-——
When guests came to dinner at Leona'shome, they knew they would see abeautifully set table and enjoy.goodfood.She took pride inher linens and china. Avery upsetting incident happened one nightduring a dinner party. The dishes werecleared from the maincourse andplacedona drop leaftable inthe kitchen. While thedessert was being eaten, a devastating soundwas heard. The leg of the drop leave tablegave way andall those beautiful dishescame crashing to the floor. Many of thebroken dishes were handpainted ones thatcouldnot be replaced. Needless to say,Leona was heartsick.
One summer, Emer was inthe St. Mark'sHospital for six weeks where he underwentsurgery for a kidney ailment. This put a
133
If
great strain on Leona. She hadto see that theanimals were taken care of, oversee thefamily needs andmake her trips to thehospital to cheer Emer up. She also hadtomilk the cow night andmorning. One daythe cow stepped onher foot, and shehobbledaround with a very swollenblackandblue foot.
Leonabeganto wear a hearing aid. Thishearing aidhada large battery that wasconcealedunder her clothing and the cordcame up the back ofher neck. Eachtime shewould needa new hearing aid, it seemed asthough the style, size and efficiency hadimproveduntil she was wearing one that thebattery was concealed inher eye glasses andconnected to the ear mold. Itwas a constantfinancial struggle to keep repairing andreplacinghearing aids, but itwas worth it tohave her hear and make life so muchmoremeaningful to her.
Inthe summer of 1933, Leona was takento the hospital to have a tumor removed.Because ofher loss ofbloodandrundowncondition, she was only 39 years of age atthe time, her healthbegan to slowly declinefrom then on.
Leonahadserved as Secretary for theM.I.A. and taught Beehive classes beforeher marriage. After she startedwearing herhearing aid, she accepted callings intheM.I.A., served as a Primary Teacher underPresident Blanche Moss, and served twoyears as first counselor inthe Relief SocietyOrchardWard with ElizabethWood asPresident. She served 25 years as an officerinthe Daughters ofUtahPioneers. Emer andLeona worked on the Ward BuildingCommittee to raise funds for the newOrchardWard Chapel and Leona was put incharge of the dinners to raise funds. She wasan excellent cook andparticularly good incooking meats, such as elk or beef.
On Dec. 7, 1941the world was inshockto learnthat World War IIhadbeendeclared, and this changed the lifestyle ofthe American family. The menwere draftedinto the service and this left a need forwomen on the home front. Leona went towork for the Ogden Arsenal early in 1942but could only work for eight monthsbecause ofhealth conditions. Howardenlisted inthe Navy. He was a senior atDavis High School andhadenough creditsto graduate inJune. He left school early andwent into the Navy inthe spring of 1943. Itwas a most emotional strain to see the onlyson andbrother leave for war, but they wereproudofhimfor his courage andprayedforhis safe return. Howard served on aDestroyer with Halsey's fleet andwas inactive battle. Howardreturnedto a mostgrateful family at the end of the war inJune,1946.
The war also affected the sons-in-law.Norma's husband, LaVance, was called intothe ArmyrNorma came backhome tolivewith her new baby, Carolyn, for awhile untilLaVance was stationed where she couldjoinhim. Jean's husband, Martin, was taken froman office job to a school to learnhow torepair instruments at the UtahOil refinerywhere they hadbeen called upon to makeairplane gasoline. Lucile's husband, Don,was already ina vital vocation, that ofkeeping the trains running. He worked forthe UnionPacific Railroad. Joyce's futurehusband, Ray, was kept on the farm inorderto keep feeding the hungry Americans andcare for widowed mother and sisters.
The importance of education wasstressed inthis home and itwas felt thatgirls shouldhave a vocation as well as boys.Jean, Norma and Joyce were trained inoffice work and able to holdsecretarialjobs.Lucile became a beauty operator. Howard
134
returnedfrom the service trained to be anelectrical technician.
Inweddings, Leona did everything shecould to help make them special. Jean hadasmall home reception. Lucile chose not tohave a wedding reception and all the fuss.Norma, Howardand Joyce all hadlargewedding receptions. For some reason orother, Leona didnot discourage Howardfrom marryingand thought his bride-to-bewas tops. Howardsaid this was probablybecause they were relievedand glad to getridofhim.
Thanksgiving Day was a very specialday inthe lives of Emer and Leona. Theylovedhavingall the children and grand¬children come home for dinner every year.They did this until Leona's healthwould notpermit her to carry onwith this tradition.
Christmas Eve was another special timeinthe Arbuckle home. Fromthe time Jeanand Martinwere marrieduntil Leona's
ÿÿtliTÿirtheÿfamilyÿwouMÿgatheron ~
Christmas Eve andwait for the arrival ofSanta Claus. For this festive occasion, thetree was all aglow and Christmasdecorations placedthroughout the house.Buffet supper was served and gifts wereexchanged. The grandchildren furnishedmost the program. Their little eyes sparkledwith the excitement they felt intheir heartsas they anxiously awaited this night of fun,gifts and Santa Claus.
In1943, at age 49, Leona suffered aheart attack. She didnot recover enough tocarry on as she haddone inthe past and hadto have more help inthe home from husbandand children. About 1950, she hada verysevere heart attack andwas takenbyambulance to the St. Mark's Hospital. For a
few days her chances for livingwere veryslim. The doctor advised Emer to get all
legalwork taken care ofbefore itwas toolate. Prayer, alongwith her Howard staminaand great desire to live pulledher throughagain, but she never again enjoyed one dayof really goodhealth.
Leona's activities were greatly curtailedfollowing that heart attack. She and Emerhadto withdraw from many of their socialfunctions and she could do less and lesshousework. She hadto give up driving thecar and this was a disappointment for her.She hadcome from horse andbuggythrough ModelT andbeat up used cars andshe would have enjoyed driving the niceBuick she was proudof.
InApril 1954,Emer retired. They werebothready for his retirement,but wereconcerned about how they would make endsmeet. The 84 year oldhome was gettingbadly inneedof repairs again, expensiverepairs. The house was not as warm as itshouldbe to make these grandparentscomfortable.
Representatives of the Utah StateHighway Department came to them intheearly spring of 1955 and informed them thata freeway would be going through theirproperty and the State would like to buytheir home. To Emer and the five children,this was an answer to their prayers. ToLeona, this was a most traumaticexperience. This was the house her fatherbuilt, the home she was bornandraised in,the home she raisedher children in. TheState paid them enoughmoney to buyproperty at 80 MasonLane inNorth SaltLake. They built a lovely, comfortablehome on it. TedNewman, a lifelong friendand carpenter, constructed it.
They finished a basement apartment andwere able to rent it for additional income.This was the first time they hadbeen able to
135
have a new home with the new carpets,drapes, etc. This home hadtwo bathrooms.A washer and dryer were convenientlylocatedinthe utility roomon the main floor.Itwas convenient; itwas pretty, as well aswarm and cozy. Intheir declining years,they could never have made it alone iftheyhadn't have hadthe conveniences this newhome gave them.
Leona suffered frombleedingulcers andas this condition worsened, her diet becamestrict. She could eat less and less of the goodthings she hadalways enjoyed. She oftensaid when aperson is young andhealthy andcan eat anything, he can't afford to buy it,but when he gets so he can afford anythinghe wants to eat, then he can't eat it!
While livinginNorth Salt Lake intheirnew home, Emer was chosen as theOutstanding Manof the South Davis Lion'sClub and asked to represent them at theconvention inNew York. Neither Leonanor Emer hadbeento New York before andIhougHTthis was a wonderful opportunitjrfof"a nice trip. They bothknew this wouldbe areal strain on Leonabut she was feelingfairly well at the time and they decided togo. They went by rail andhadtheir privatecompartment. She stood the trip quite well,but hada couple of days inNew York whereshe hadto stay inher hotel roomall day.She felt strong enough to go onup to Bostonfor a couple of days and tour with two oftheir grandsons, Robert andDouglas Brown.They were also able to fly to California for acouple of short visits with Emer's brother,Andrew, andhis wife Viola. Leona's firstplane ride was up to Jerome, Idaho inthewinter time to visit with her daughter Joyceand family. In1959, Joyce, Ray and familymovedto Idaho. This was an adjustment forthem as well as for the families they left inUtah.
Five years before Leona's death, shesuffered another heart attack. It looked asthough the endwas at hand. Dr. HickenadvisedEmer to notify any children whomightbe livingout of town that their mothermay not make it through the night. Bymorning she hadralliedsome andwas takenby ambulance to the South DavisCommunity Hospital. Itwas inand out ofthe hospital for the next five years. InAugust of 1967, after counseling withdoctors, having family discussions andprayer andreceiving consent from Leonashe had surgery to remove part of thestomach to see ifthe hemorrhaging couldbestopped. The doctors discovered the laststages of cirrhosis of the liver. There was nouse to continue the surgery. She died threemonths later, onNov. 14, 1967.
Everyone's lives changedwith Leona'sdeath. Christmas was not the same. Motherwasn't there. Heavy hearts were felt by all asthe sparkle she usually radiated at these
-oceasions-was-not-withthem. Each familybegan their own Christmas traditions.
136
A noble woman, a friend, devoted mother andwife had finished her work on earth, but thememory of this fine personwould stay inthehearts of those who knew her, and especially thechildren who lovedher and appreciated the loveand care she gave to them they were given aheritage to be proudof.

Lucile Arbuckle HatchBy JoAnn Carroll
Lucile,with one L,Arbuckle was bornon September 17, 1916 inBountiful, UtahtoEmer Shreeve and Leona HowardArbuckle.Onthe day that she was born GrandmaArbuckle hadbeenpickingpeaches intheArbuckle orchard on 400 North. She wastheir second daughter and very illas a child.As a little girl she hadto take awful-tastingmedicine andwas not a good sport about it.Great-grandfather Howardofferedher 25cents every day that she took it. Sometimesshe would sit at the kitchentable for hours ata time trying to decide if she wanted themoney badenough to take the "foul tastingstuff." Mother was not expected to live tobe an adult muchless marry andhavechildren.
Mother learnedabout death at an earlyage. Her brother James diedwith whoopingcough when he was only a few weeks old.One of the neighbors came to see the babyand they brought that dreaded cough.Grandma criedwhen they left because sheknew they hadbrought whooping coughwith them. Mother learned about polygamywhen Great grandpa Howarddied, by theorder people followed the coin.
Mother saw runningwater and abathroominstalledinthe oldHowardhome.Emer Arbuckle knew that horselesscarriages were the way of the future and wasone of the first to purchase a newautomobile. Central heatingwas installedafter she was married. Lucile graduatedfrom West High School. Aunt Gertrude wasthe principle there, so Jean and Lucile wentto West High School.
While Mother was attending beauticianschool she hadher hair bleachedblonde. Inthose days the students practicedon each
other, rather than wigs. Mother hada datewith that dashing DonHatch that night, soshe and Grandma turned the lights down lowand she didget out of the house without Dadnoticing. However, when they got to thedance Daddidnotice andwould not goinside with a bleachedhussy. Lucile haslaughed for years over being a bleachedhussy. She was a goodbeautician andmanyplaces wanted to employ her. ZCMI, HotelUtahandNewhouse Hotel were hot placesto be inthe late 1930's.
On one of the coldest days inhistory,January 20, 1937, she marriedDonaldMHatchinthe Salt Lake LDS Temple.Because itwas during the Depression era,there were no flowers, wedding cake or anyof the frills. Ontheir 50th weddinganniversary, her children made sure she hadall the things she missed onher originalwedding day.
Iremember Mother and Dadbought aradio andit came inon a boxcar from theRailroad. Dancingaroundthelivingroomwith mother, and listeningto bobby soxersscream while Frank Sinatra sang, is a fondmemory. Inthose days everyone washed onMonday andwhoever hadtheir washhanging on the lines first, was the besthomemaker. Because Dadwas gone a lot,working for the railroad, Mother wouldwash inthe middle of the night so she wouldbe the first to hang out her wash.
We also battledrattlesnakes on ourproperty. The first rattlesnake we had,Mother found out under the clothesline. Sheranto the neighbors for help to kill it.WhenDadcame home, he toldher to killthesnakes with a shovel, to just chop theirheads off. The very next Monday morningthere was a snake inthe basement. BarbaraandIcan still recall the smell of the snake, '
and see her carrying it upstairs on a shovel.
143
When Dadcame home that time, there wereboxes packed! He walked into the kitchenand asked if "they" were going somewhereand she toldhim.
When we got to Bountiful,we livedinan apartment on 1st West. Momtook Dadshopping for a truck and then started lookingfor a house. Dadwas horrifiedthat she wasspending so muchmoney without a secondthought. She hadto explain to him thatwhile he hadbeen "working on the railroad"and furthering the war effort, she hadbeeninMilfordwith two little girls savingpilesofmoney.
That's when we movedto our secondhome on 2nd South, halfa block from StokerSchool. Mother could check on us to see ifwe wore our coats out for recess. We hadwonderful neighbors and ward. We hadlotsof fun there and lots ofparties. We managedthe chickens, cattle and the victory garden.Mother lovedto garden andhada beautifulrose garden. Kay was bornhere.
We movedto a house that dadbuilt on5th south. Once again we hadwonderfulneighbors and a goodward, also lots ofslumber parties. This was where the police,for throwing snowballs at cars, chasedBarbara andher friends. Barbara hadherwedding receptionthere at that house. Wealso had sadness inthis home. Rose Marywas bornand died a few days later.
The traffic and the hospital drove Momand Dadto buildanother home on 2150South. They retiredinthis home and therewere more goodneighbors. They havehelpedgreatly these last few years!
Mother took up golf after Daddid; itwas this or a divorce. They spent 18 wintersinSt. George playinggolf. Momusedtoboilher golfballs because she thought thismade them go farther. When mother started
to lose her sight Dadbought her colored golfballs. She ended up using the white ones andher loving friends usedthe coloredballs andkept track ofher balls. They toldher whereshe neededto hit, to the right 50 yards orwhatever. Dadtook mother everywhere hethought she might want to see before hersight was totally gone.
Things we learned from mother:How to make fudge on Sundayafternoon.How to add quickly inour heads byplaying cards.How to drive like a man.Motherhoodis not for wimps.
Never ask a teenager a direct question-then they won't have to lie to you.
Mother lovedto shop! She lovedto feelthe merchandise. Infact she went shoppingthe very Monday before she died. Dadalways made sure she hadmoney for newclothes: she likedto dress sharp. Taking hershopping was quite a trip when she began tolose her sight andher healthwith cane,purse and a desire to get as far and as longas she could. We hadquite a time keepingup with her. We triednot to lose her, or lether fall down, or have to ask the price on thetags.
Mother didnot lose her sight gracefully,.She went blindkickingand screaming allthe way. She also movedto Bountifulhouseinthat same frame ofmind. When motherhada serious stroke a few years ago she losther sense of humor for a short time. OnenightIdroppedby and she was giving outone liners all over the place.
She was gracious and lovely and sassyand irreverent all inone. She didither way.

Sunday was always a day of doing aslittle work as just hadto be done. Foodwasprepared the day before. They went toSunday School inthe morning and at 2:00p.m. meeting inthe afternoon.
Grandma Howardwas apracticalnurse and was gonemuchof the time.
On special occasions theprimary teachers would takethe children to the foothillsto gather wildflowers. At

Leila alsolovedto go to the Salt Lake Theater andOrpheus Theater. She enjoyed so manyplays, among which was BenHur at the SaltLake Theater and saw the actress, MaudeAdams. She also lovedto float on the GreatSalt Lake,but was afraidof water any placeelse.
Attending grade school inBountiful,there weren't many who passedthe eighthgrade. When Leila graduated, many haddropped out. They hada teacher fromanother school give them the tests. Helookedto see ifthere were any books inthedesks so no one would cheat. There was aboard of examiners at the county seat inFarmingtonwho corrected the papers.Then, Leilahada graduation dress, andwentto East Bountiful for graduation exercisesand to get her diploma, dance and a banquet.There weren't any high schools inDavisCounty at that time. Then they went on theBamberger train to the LDS University inSalt Lake City. Two teachers who wereespecially rememberedwere Prof. Hinckleyand Evan Stephens. She also went tosummer school three years at the UniversityofUtah.
Leila lovedto readall her life andwhenshe was little andby herself so much sheusedto pretend she was the character inthestory, especially one story of children livingina tree house.
Leila shook hands with PresidentLorenzo Snow and also attendedhis funeral.She remarkedthat he hadthe kindest eye ofanyone she ever knew. At around the age often, she prepared dinner for Aurelia S.Rogers, the woman who started the firstPrimary.

-saw-what-she-had-done,-he-paid-for-it--instead.
Leilamet Frank Dana that winter andwas marriedinJuly. Incoming to Wyoming,they took the train to Montpelier, stayingovernight.

The stage took them to Aftonrequiring the thirdnight at the hotel there.Mr. Lee Prestonpickedthem up at Aftonand took them to their new home inBedfordwhere Mellie and she had a room together.
Leila enjoyed teaching young people andsaid she was a kidwith them. At one timeshe wrote an excuse for one young manwhich she was calledbefore the schoolboard for. The students used to like to go to
her roomandtalk to her. Mrs. Robert Heinersaid she was her favorite teacher.
Dances were looked forward to as Leilalovedto dance. She went to all the dancesandnever missedthem ifpossible. She mether future husband, a light complexionedyoung manwho lovedto dance, at the firstdance she went to inBedford. She hadotherproposals for marriage, but returnedtoMontpelier the following summer with hermother. Itwas there she met Frank Danawith a team ofhorses and they went on to

Cecil HowardDam
On the 27th of September, 1916, a sonwas bornto Frank and LeilaDana atFreedom,Wyoming. He was the third ofeight children. He livedhis entire life inthat area of Thayne, Wyoming. He attendedschool at Thayne through the ninth grade.
A fond memory of Cecil's was when oneofhis favorite teachers took the ninth gradegraduates to Salt Lake City for two days.He graduated from Star Valley High Schooland attended two years of Seminary. Cecilnever remembered sloughing school becausehe hadbeenwarned by his dadnot to. Hewas an avidparticipant insports. Duringhishigh school years, he excelled inwrestling,broke the highjump record, andparticipatedintrack events. More recently, inhis lateryears, he enjoyed a cutter race team andparticipatedinthose events. Most recently,his interests turned to bowling, andsnowmobiling. He lovedboating,waterskiing, fishing, andhunting, untilhis
-health-would-ia0t-permit-it-.--He-leamed the-—value of and the needto work early inlife,and it stayed with him.
At the age of 5, he rode a horse andherdedcows all day long. The boys and theirdad worked hard, but when Saturdayafternoon came they playedball or wentfishing. Cecil drove a milk truck, hauledcoal and grain, and worked inthe creamery.He owned a farm for four years, thenpurchasedthe general store.
In1954, they startedprocessingmeat atthe store, and in 1961built a cold storageplant on the store. In1968 they built theRustler Drive-In. Then in 1972 they closedthe store and during the summer constructedthe cold storage plant.
Cecil's dad spent a great deal of timefreighting with a team andwagon or sleighfrom Montpelier. One coldwinter night,Cecil heard the sleighbells. He ranto greethis dad and couldn't resist the temptation ofsticking his tongue on a piece ofmetal onthe sleigh. Needless to say, his tongue wassore for some time. Cecil always walked toschool, jumping all the fences on the way.One winter morningthey were coasting toschool andhe ran into the wire fence and cuthis handand arm severely.
When he startedhigh school, he rode ahorse to Thayne, sometimes inminus 40degree weather. The bus he rode inwas alumber vanbuilt on the back of a truck.They brushedthe frost off the woodenbenches and shivered the 15 miles to Afton.
He always enjoyedmusic and singing.Duringhis school years inThayne anotherfavorite teacher, LaVere Anderson, taughthim to play the harmonica and the mandolin.Duringhis teen years, he sang leadinseveral operas directedby Frances Palmer.
HaroldPapworth,bus manager from StarValley High School, came and asked Cecilifhe would drive abus from FreedomtoAfton because they were having severediscipline problems. He enjoyed a closeassociation with the youth during the 16years that he drove the school bus. The lastfew years he drove the bus by choicebecause he enjoyedbeingwith the youngpeople. Recently hejoked about taking arest when he would leave the plant at 3:00p.m. to drive the bus. Duringthat 16 yearshe drove the bus, he was a strictdisciplinarian. He firmly believedintheprinciples he hadbeen taught inhis youth;that you should obey, respect those inauthority, be honest and dependable. He wastaught byhis dad that a man's word was hisbond. Cecil firmly believedthis andwould
163
not convert to modernprinciples. He trustedeveryone implicitly and found himselfinvolvedinseveral legal situations becauseofhis faith and trust inpeople.
Duringthe summer of 1972, onWed.,tVi
Mythe 13 ,while he was helping to buildthe cold storage plant, he was knockedoffthe building and fell 16 feet to the cementfloor and sustained severe injuries. Sixweeks later September 2nd, 1972 on his 56thbirthday,he suffered the first of three heartattacks that hospitalizedhim for 31 days.His recovery was slow, but he wasdetermined to returnto his normal schedule,
which he did. Because ofhis desire anddetermination to continue to live a normallife,he pushedhimselfbeyondhis physicalcapabilities.
His church activities includedserving ascoach for softball andbasketball,superintendent of the MIA and SundaySchool, the Elder's quorum secretary, andStake HighCouncil for eight years. Heserved for three enjoyable years as advisorfor the special interest group. At the time ofhis death, he was serving as director of theAaronic PriesthoodYouth and as a hometeacher.

Charles HowardDana
Iwas bornDecember 22, 1919 inBedfordina little two roomhouse abouttwo miles East of Thayne on the Bedfordroad.Iwas the fourth child and my parentswere Frank Dana and Leila HowardDana.The houseIwas born inhadcracks inthewalls and floor. Mother tried to stuff thecracks with rags to keep out the cold.
Dairy cows were always the family'soccupation, so there was plenty ofwork foreveryone.
When the family bought the JohnHemmert farm, they moved from the Danafarm to the Hemmert house and farmed theMarksplace, Dana and Hermmert farms;about 600 acres. The bamwas enlarged tohandle 45 headof dairy cows. They farmedwithhorses, sometimes four horses to aplow.
Iworked on the ranch andhauledcoal~fronrthÿB~liM3uin9lÿÿ
with Howardina two-ton truck. He wouldhaul coal untilDecember withjust one truckinthe snow. That was an all day trip. Whenwe would come down the hill from BlindBull,Iwould holdthe gear shift incompound so itwould not slip out, thereforeholdingthe truck back. Itwas a realfrightening task. The roadwas very narrowand inmanyplaces the truck couldhardlymake the bend. They sold coal to the SwissCheese factory inThayne.
InOctober 1940 Leland Skinner andIwent to Salt Lake and enlisted inthe U.S.Army Air Force.Iwas inrecruit camp inFort Douglas intents until Jan. We gatheredwood from the hills and sawed it up to keepthe tents warm. There were five people whostayed ineach tent. Itwas very cold. Thiswas the first time Iwas far away from home
at Christmas. The other six guys that were inmy tent got furloughs andwent home forChristmas. Iwas the only one left inmytent and Ralph Gordonwas the only one leftinhis tent and so we movedintogether andspent Christmas together. We began afriendship that would last a lifetime.
After Igot through boot campIwasassigned to the Headquarter Squadron 7thBomb Group at Fort Douglas. Hisassignment was a week of "KP" (kitchenpolice) and then a month's guard duty intheairport. ThenIwas assigned to the truckmotor pool division and drove the soldiersfrom Fort Douglas to the airport where theyworked onthe line and worked on theairplanes. By then the barracks werecompleted at the airport and they movedusall out to the Airport. Itook the messengerrunfor awhile and when they stopped that.CaptainNickerson calledme inandwantedto know what Iwanted to go into. ItoldhimIwanted to work inauto mechanics and thatis where he put me. He put me with the bestmechanics they hadandIstayed there untilwe went overseas.
We soon were out to sea andwe stoppedat Honoluluandhada four hour leave. Wewere told that we were not supposed to writeany letters or send any messages hometelling then where we were. So Igot a bigidea that this was a goodplace to sendChristmas cards home. The next morningweset out to sea again and that was the last myparents heardfrom me for over 30 days. Wenever hadany way to get any wordbackhome. We were inAustralia, Brisbane toSidney then to Singapore and to Perth, thenFiji Island. On over to Colombo and India.Inthe fall of 1941we got orders to comehome andwe left Bombay. Back to LosAngeles and LuckAir Field,Arizona.
167
After Iwas inArizona for awhile theytransferred me to Las Vegas, Nevada. InJuly of 1945 Igot my release from the AirForce. Icame back home andmarriedElaine Heap on December 27, 1945. Webought part of Dad's ranch. There we liveduntil 1964when we movedto town.
After we took on the Massey FergusonDealership,we hadtrips from California,San Diego and to Portland, Oregon two orthree times.
InMay of 1969Ihada heart attackwhichbrought about a complete change inmy life. Elaine andItook a Temple class in
January of 1970 and after we started to go tochurch. We went through the Idaho FallsTemple on September 15, 1970. 1was calledto be the Executive Secretary to the ThayneBishopric in 1972.
Iwas inthe City Council for four yearsand then Mayor in 1974. We have put up anew fire building for the fire engine andtown equipment andhave purchased groundfrom the Church for a park. We hadadouble tennis court built, got most of theroadoiled intown. Ihave also served threeyears inthe UintahLincolnCountyAssociation of Government.

William and Betsy Jane FackrellHoward
William, son of Joseph and Ann SheltonHoward, was borninNov. 2, 1844. He wasa companion to his brother Thomas crossingthe plains inthe year 1861. Hebravely metand overcame the trials andhardships ofpioneer life. They crossed the plains threeyears before their family.
William was unable to get mucheducationbecause of circumstances, but wasintelligent and apt at figures, good ingeneralknowledge. He hadhis endowments intheEndowment House at Salt Lake City, Utah,in 1855. This was prior to going with othersfrom Bountiful,Utah, to bring ina companyof emigrants from Council Bluffs. Hefinancially helped,his family, when theywere inEnglandand after arrival inUtah.
William was a good father, and a kindhusband, faithful inthe gospel, testifying toits truthfulness on his dyingbed. It is sad tothink that this second soninthe Howard-family shouldhave to leave his lovingwifeand little daughter so early and insuch a sadmanner. But such are the ways of life. Hemet death from an accident while logging inMill Creek Canyon, 18th Jan. 1873.
Betsy Jane came to Utahfrom DavisCo., Illinois,her birthplace, with herparents, inthe year 1852. The family startedout with an ox team and also a horse team,journeying westward to the RockyMountains. The family locatedinWestBountiful for a short time, then movedtoFarmington, Utah, where they residedforfive years. They then returnedto WestBountiful,where she married.
She took part inthe Johnston Armymove andknew the hardtimes ofpioneerlife. She took wool from the sheeps' backs
andworked itup into clothing. She learnedto weave and spin all sorts of cloth, for men'sand women's apparel. At eighteen shemarriedWilliam Howardon 19 April, 1869.
William and Betsy Jane hada hardlifetogether. William's wheat crop hadbeendestroyedby the "Mormon Crickets." Sothat winter William went to the canyon toget logs to sell. Canyonwork was hardwork, so one morningBetsy Jane pleadedwith himnot to go. As he left,he said, "Thisis my last day." Little didBetsy Jane thinkthat he would be brought back allbrokenup.He livedfor six weeks and thenpassed awayout ofhis suffering.
After he died Betsy Jane and their littledaughter, Clarissa Ann, livedina small logcabin, which was cold inthe winter andhotinthe summer. When her mother died, BetsyJane went to live with her father and takecare ofhim.---- -
After seven years she wanted a home ofher own. With the help ofher brother-in-law, James, she hada house built across thestreet from his house. Soon after that shemarriedher sister Juliett's husbandinpolygamy, for protection. They hadonedaughter, Leila.
They were harassedby Deputies, soBetsy Jane traveled 400 miles south toOrderville to escape the law. While there thepeople livedwhat itwas like when theywere livingthe "order." She stayed there forsix months and then went back home for onenight. The Deputies heardthat she was backhome andwere right after her again. Shegatheredup a few things and then left forher brother's home inRandolph, RichCo.,Utah, and stayed for three months.
182
James gave himselfup to the Deputiesandwas imprisoned for three months andfined one hundreddollars.
Betsy hadbeen a nurse for many yearsfor a livelihood. She served innearly every
capacity inthe Auxiliaries of the Church, as
teacher, officer and other special callings.Trials have mellowedand sweetened her life
and she isjust that kindof a character.
Betsy Jane FackrellHoward's home was built by her husband, James Howard.
