You might ask someone to read the two to you so you can compare them.
Here's the first paragraph from this one:
This September marks the 150th anniversary of a terrible episode in the history of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. On September 11, 1857, some 50 to 60 local militiamen in southern Utah, aided by American Indian allies, massacred about 120 emigrants who were traveling by wagon to California. The horrific crime, which spared only 17 children age six and under, occurred in a highland valley called the Mountain Meadows, roughly 35 miles southwest of Cedar City. The victims, most of them from Arkansas, were on their way to California with dreams of a bright future.
And the first paragraph from the one Utah Girl posted several months ago, and I linked, which you say is different:

And, the last from each ( you tell me which is which):
8. John D. Lee, “Lee’s Last Confession,” San Francisco Daily Bulletin Supplement, Mar. 24, 1877.

I await your retraction and apology.
You are correct, the thread you linked at #17 has the same source as this thread. I apparently confused it with the link at #96, which is a link to a thread about the movie, and Governor Romney's unhappiness at making a movie on this subject at this time. I apologize for my error.
