| Further Information |
This photograph is in good condition. The edges and corner show slight creases and wear. Written on the back, in blue ink, is the following: "Football Team [,] Cut no. 28." Written in pencil is: "Football Team [,] 4 ½ X 7 ½ Wasatch." A stain is also visible near the bottom right corner. Wasatch Academy was founded on April 19, 1875 by the Reverend Duncan James McMillan whom also had a major influence in founding Westminster College. A protégé of Sheldon Jackson, he came to the Salt Lake Valley in March of 1875 to find refuge from his bronchial condition and to establish a proselytizing mission to convert Mormons. However, McMillan soon turned his efforts to education when his proselytizing efforts towards the Mormons proved futile. He then founded Wasatch Academy in Mount Pleasant, Utah and opened a number of subsequent schools of the same nature in northern and southern Utah. |
