Show THE JOURNEY TO UTAH. 55 little farther and I marked the great dome of the Tabernacle, and then the smaller buildings of Salt Lake City, rise out of the evening mirage, with only the interest of a traveler, and little thinking of the years in which that was to be my home, or in what mysterious ways I was to be identified with its social and political combats. THE GREAT SALT LAKE, UTAH. But before I enter on the hackneyed themes of Utah and Mormon-ism, allow me, indulgent reader, to relieve the tedium of a merely per-sonal narrative by giving the story of one who sought the Westera Wilds from more heroic motives than mine. |
