No, I don't think any of us will do that. :^)

But what CG said is in fact the conclusion reached in "The Work and the Glory" series. It's been a while since I read it so I don't remember the details. Now it may actually be that there were some intentions of doing it and the Saints leaving early put a stop to it. Or it may have just been rumors. Brigham Young took it very seriously at the time, though, as he should have.

I beleave it was the U.S. Postmaster General at the time who was pushing for extermination of all LDS. I viewed the last of the Navoo Temple dedications from our stake center yesterday. It was wonderfull in every respect. CTR.
