Heber C built this home and his family lived in it for only 3 months.

He and Brigham always remained true to the prophet Joseph Smith.  His missionary stories show a man of great faith and trust in the Lord.  I am always touched by the story of he and Brigham leaving on their missions while they and family were sick.  Rise up and give 3 cheeers, "Hurrah for Israel!".

I have a conscience void of offense towards God and towards all men.”  The riders climbed the hill to the temple as the sun rose, casting golden light over the building’s unfinished walls. Joseph stopped his horse and looked out over the city. “This is the loveliest place and the best people under the heavens,” he said. “Little do they know the trials that await them.”   The Gale family huddled around the prophet Joseph and his brother Hyrum.   Sadie and Sister Dickson examining the door where the musket ball came through and struck Hyrum in the head.  Another ball entered by the side of the door.   We are in front of the window that Joseph fell or jump...
