Notes:

Bud (Clarence) remembers: "Dad (Alfred) was having problems with his eyes. I was about 8 or 9 when he started seeing a specialist in SLC. Ma (Adelia) and Dad took Dallas and me with them in the model T Ford. In order to get over Wellsville Canyon I remember Dad had to turn the car around and back up the hill. In those days there was always a problem with flat tires. We left home at 4am and got to Ogden at 8pm. We spent the night with Uncle Ross and Aunt Inez and continued into Salt Lake City the next morning. Us kids stayed with the Fowlers (friends from Lago) in Roy. Dad did loose the sight in his left eye at that time.

We returned to Ogden and Dad bought a 26 Overland; that's what we rode home in. It was a much better trip.

After Grandpa Bassett died Dad was the constable in Lago for about 15 years. Dad was on the school board for over 35 years. After war was declared in 1942 they moved the high school from Thatcher to Grace, and Dad remained trustee. Dad ran the dance hall in Lago (at the school house) for quite a few years. I only remember that they had big dances there every Saturday night in the winter time and it always bothered us kids that Dad would dance with every one but ma; never found out the reason.

When Grandpa Bassett died Mother received $5,000 from the estate, Grandpa Hansen gave Alfred another $5,000 and Dad borrowed $4,000 from Utah Mortgage and loan to buy the farm. During the depression they feared they would loose it. About 1934 Dad went to Federal Land bank to borrow enough to pay off Utah Mortgage and Loan. Sumptner Pond was head of Federal Land Bank in Grace and refused the loan. Ma, in speaking to Lenore Rudd, learned that the same thing had happened to Glenn, but Glenn made a trip to Spokane, the head offices, and spoke to his brother-in-law Lyle Coburn (Irene Rudd's husband). After examining the finances he determined that Glenn had enough equity in the property to grant the loan. Mother came home and told Dad and he also made the trip to Spokane (Irene had been mother's girlfriend of her youth). Upon returning home he again visited Pond who told him the main office had granted his loan. He didn't know why. Dad later learned that Pond had blackballed him."

Bud and Dorothy remember the first radio they ever had as a family. It was operated on batteries. Batteries were expensive so in the winter months they would block up the car and bring in the battery so they could enjoy the radio.

Dorothy remembers how her mother kept her at her side to teach her the “womanly” arts. She remembers learning how to iron and cook. Dorothy is a fabulous cook. It was Mother that encouraged the kids to get their educations. She steered Dallas to the army to further his career in electronics and Dorothy was encouraged to go into nursing. Adelia checked with her friend Dr. Kackley and Dorothy was sent to Odgen to the Dee Hospital.

Dorothy remembers in 1934 during the depression that Alfred received a letter saying that his farm was to be foreclosed. Alfred paced the floor and couldn’t sleep for worry. Dorothy remembers that Adelia wrote to the state senator to request assistance for the problem. (Bud remembered a conversation with Lenore Rudd) The result was the same. A trip to Spokane secured a new loan with the Federal Land Bank.

(I’m - Mary Ann -always impressed with Adelia and how she was not only practical but also followed up and got things done, What a marvelous woman she was, also with a strong history of service in the community. It is obvious how she loved and guided her children).

Bud went to work for Vega (a Division of Lockheed) aircraft in November 1939. One of the classes he took while there was jig building. He was also a machine parts dispatcher.

Ma died in February, leaving the youngest son Stanley at home with Dad. He would have been about 7 at the time. She had a lump growing in her breast and went into surgery in Soda Springs to have it removed. She did not survive the surgery.

Oddly enough, Dallas was on a troop train that went thru Soda Springs that day heading for Alaska by way of Washington, but of course he was unable to get off. Bud got word of the death thru Vega Aircraft. The family had notified the plant to get word to him. He asked for leave to attend the funeral, but it was not granted. He went anyway. They threatened to turn him over to the army, but it was an empty threat as he had already joined the navy.

He went into the active service in Feb. 1943. He was in the Pacific for two years mostly on Bougainville (battle of the Coral Sea) and then came back to the states joining the ship New Jersey and went to antiwek. When he came home his ship was called to a rescue in Alaska so they took the long way home.

Phil stayed on the farm helping that summer. That winter he went with Willard Bitton to Ogden to work. Dorothy was in nurses training in Ogden at the Dee Hospital and Dallas was in Alaska. Dallas's group was sent back to home base in the mid-west and eventually to England where he was "ships crew boss" and flew many missions over Germany.

In November Dad married Lutie Bassett Swensen, Ma's older sister, and she helped raise Stan. Dad milked cows and helped Lutie with the post office during the war. Rex Bassett ran the farm.

Bud was discharged in January 1946. Phil came home the following year.

When the war was over Phil and Bud returned to the farm. They purchased the Elliot Place, leased part of Emil’s farm, bought equipment and built the Quonset hut for weather protection.

Phil married Carol Meacham in 1950 and Bud married Mary Ann Hildreth in 1951

Alfred married BASSETT, Adelia Dubois on 31 Aug 1918 in Pocatello, Bannock, Id, USA. Adelia (daughter of BASSETT, William Henry and COOK, Marette (Twin)) was born on 3 Sep 1894 in Lago (Trout Creek), Bannock, Id, USA; died on 13 Feb 1942 in Soda Springs, Caribou, Id, USA; was buried on 16 Feb 1942 in Lago, Caribou, Id, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

As a distinct shock to residents of the entire valley came the news of the death of Mrs. Adelia Bassett Hansen, wife of Alfred Hansen, who succumbed Friday morning at 3am in the Caribou County Hospital following major surgery at 8am.

Mrs Hansen was born at Lago September 3, 1894, a daughter of William Henry and Marrett Cook Bassett.

She attended grade school at Lago and High school at Thatcher. She also attended Idaho Tech, now the University of Idaho South at Pocatello, one year. She clerked in her fathers store for 8 years and was cashier in the Keith O'Brien store in SLC for 2 years. She organized the first girls basketball team in Lago which team was not defeated for 2 years. In Aug 1918 (error) she married Alfred P. Hansen and has made her home in Lago since. She served as president, counseler, and secretary of the Lago ward relief society, a sunday school teacher and secretary of the HYN club.

Bud (Clarence) remembers: Ma was about 5'6" of slim build, never put on much weight, maybe because she had to work so hard, packing water, washing clothes in the old fashion hand washers, feeding hired men. We had a big garden and she canned the produce. No electricity until 1929. Just can remember living in the "old Morehead" place up at the saw mill site on the hill in Lago. Then Dad rented and ran the WH Bassett place (grandpa's) and moved into their home. They lived in one end and we the other. In 1928 Dad bought the place. In 1929 grandpa died in a car accident, but grandma (Met) remained with us. We kids had the responsibility of getting in her wood and coal, gather her eggs and be generally useful. The W.H.Bassett store was then sold to Hyrum Swenson, Ma's brother-in-law. Grandma passed away in 1934. By then Ma, who was always active in the church, was Relief Society president and kept busy doing service for her neighbors. Dallas and I kept busy with our own private bird santuary. We had hawks and magpies and woodpeckers. We kept them in our tree house. Then one night we found two baby owls. We just stuck them in the chicken feed box. Later that evening Ma went to feed the chickens and she could see those huge eyes sticking up and got quite a fright. She wouldn't let us keep them and the babies were returned to their nest. I remember us kids were sent to Grandma Hansen's and when we came home Phil was there. That was Sept. of 1924. When we went to Grandma's, her girls and Emil were there and we had to milk cows and pack milk. When the aunts scubbed the floor they made us sit on the chair until it was dry. It was not easy to get around Lago in the early days. Trout Creek would flood and cause extra miles going around instead of over the bridge. We got water in the house in 1931 or 32. After Grandma Bassett died we got a bathroom out of part of her kitchen. When the plummer came and went downstairs to hook up the fixtures (only he and I were there) we found a bottle of Ma,s juice that had fermented and the plumber drank until he passed out down in the basement. When Ma and Dad came home they found him in the basement- he returned the next day to finish the job.

When I was in high school I remember that Ma went up to see a doctor in Pocatello. She was having trouble using her arms. He told her to change her deoderant. Stan was born 1934. In about 1937 Ma had surgery for a cyst on her ovary by Dr. Kackley in Soda Springs, By the time I graduated and left home her arm was bothering her quite a bit. In Feb. of 1942 while at work at Vega Air Craft in Burbank, California I recieved a telegram that Ma had passed away following surgery for breast cancer.



Name:
William Bassett, written 02 Dec 2006, requested by Stephen A Hansen. Since never having met Adelia, Stephen asked Bill, a 1st cousin, once removed, to share his impression of her.

Bill writes:
Regarding my memories of Aunt "Dele", I can only remember that she was by far my favorite aunt, and that she was especially warm and friendly with me. I was something of a "problem" growing up and not all that well accepted, but never felt that way in Lago. As I recall, I spent several summers there, as a toddler visiting with my Mother, and then 4 or 5 summers between ages 6 and 13. I remember sacking wheat on the combine, driving a "bull-rake", riding the derrick horse, and pitching hay on the hay stack, and Phil taught me how to ride a horse (sort of). One summer I fell off the hay stack and broke my arm and Aunt Dele was my comfort...she arranged to get me to a doctor. All of the Hansens were good to me, even Phil, but I especially felt close to Aunt "Dele". She always had a smile and I can still see the warmth in her eyes as she put up with me. I also recall that all of my sisters and brothers (most of them grew up in Lago) felt the same about her. You have a wonderful grandmother.

Notes:

Lars Peter Hansen was born in Halenslev, Denmark, the eldest child of Lars and Maria Larsen Hansen. He and his family joined the L.D.S. Church when he was very young. His father was the village tailor so they must not have had too much money. Nevertheless, he determined that his family would come to Zion. They all ended up in Mantua where they went into business herding milk cows for the community. They took them to the canyons north of Mantua. One day while herding the cattle Peter told of watching a wagon caravan crossing the canyon. They were laden with a baptismal font and the four oxen to hold it up. These were on their way to the new temple in Logan. Shortly after this they joined a wagon train heading for Idaho. It was no doubt at that time he first set eyes upon the small daughter of Christen and Maren Mickelsen. These two families and the Jens Swensens all settled in Gentile Valley. It was here years later that Peter began courting Taya Mickelsen and married her March 1, 1894.

Bud and Dorothy remember how good Grandpa Hansen was to them. At Christmas there was a little purse with 100 pennies. Dorothy remembers she and Phil sitting on his lap and learning to play pinochle. Grandpa told Dorothy she had to bid to win and we still see her bid on every hand. She remembers her and Phil staying with Grandma one time when they got into an argument and Phil was cut. Una and Grandma were so angry Dorothy and Phil ran away. Dorothy remembers Grandpa coming after them and buying them an ice cream cone to smooth things over. Bud remembers driving the header box for Grandpa and Grandpa bought him his first Stetson hat. They remeber Grandpa always loving and caring for them and givng them little treats. (From Bud and Mary Ann Hansen)

Dorthea (Taya) Mickelsen was born 21 November 1872 in Huntsville, Utah. the second child of Christen and Maren Anderson Mickelsen. They were one of the couples sent by Brigham Young to settle Huntsville. One of her first recollections of any thing of importance was when a neighbor came rushing to the door in tears with the news that "Brother Brigham is dead". She remembered her mother snatching up her baby sister Helmar, and rushing to the next neighbor with the news with a frightened Taya holding on to her skirts for dear life. Brigham Young was dead and the news spread like wildfire around the settlement. The cabins were built around a square at the center of Huntsville. Shortly after this, Taya, along with her family and others, moved to Idaho where they settled in Gentile Valley on what is now the Louis Bitton ranch. This was about 1878.
As soon as Taya was old enough she began working for other families who need help. By doing this she learned early the value of a dollar and hard work.

She was married to Lars Peter Hansen on 1 March 1894 at Lago. They had eight children: twins who died shortly after birth, two sons and four daughters, Alfred Peter, Emil Martin , Clara Molene, Ella Leona, Mary Edna, and Una May. Alfred was the oldest and Emil the youngest.
Pete bought the farm owned by Pete Lund and built a cabin there for his bride. The cabin was moved from another spot along the creek north of the present home in Lago. The logs were numbered on the cabin before it was dismantled, after which it was moved to the site prepared for it. It was then assembled again using the numbers on the logs to get the right ones in the right place. It still stands on the farm in Lago.

Six children were born in that cabin which had two rooms. Pete and Taya decided they needed more room so they built another home about a block straight east of the little cabin on the the site where the present Hansen home stands now. The two youngest children were born in the new home.
Pete and Taya worked hard to build up their farm. Coyotes were abundant and preyed on their sheep and cattle. Squirrels swarmed over their crops. Taya tells of battling squirrels with poison and she said they seemed to flourish rather than die out. Two growing boys who were sharpshooters with rifles soon made the coyotes keep their distance and along with the poison, soon made a dent in the squirrel population. Things soon began to get better and a bit easier and their perservance paid off.

Pete suffered a stroke and passed away at the age of 75. He was buried in the Lago cemetary.
Taya lived on another eighteen years to continue being the family focal point. She died November 23, 1958 at the age of 86. She was buried at her husband's side in the Lago cementery. Gems of Our Valley 1977 pg 391-392.

Lars married MICKELSEN, Dorthea on 1 Mar 1894 in Bench, Caribou, Idaho. Dorthea (daughter of MICKELSEN ( MIKKELSEN), Niels Christian and ANDERSON, Maren (Mary Ann)) was born on 21 Nov 1872 in Huntsville, Weber, Ut, USA; died on 23 Nov 1958 in Soda Springs, Caribou, Id, USA; was buried on 26 Nov 1958 in Lago, Caribou, Id, USA.

See Lars Peter Frederick Hiram Hansen note.

Notes:

Charles Henry II and William Henry Bassett filed claims on the Trout Creek area, the original cabin of Charles Henry II being the site of the Rex Bassett home. William Henry succeeded Mr. Lusher as postmaster and built the general merchandise store. The four brothers, along with a fifth, Fred, ran a stage coach line from Beaver Canyon to Yellowstone Park, called the Gentile Valley-Oneida County Stage and Express for the first few of these early years when the homesteads weren't too profitable. But relative posperity must have come as exhibited by the homes the brothers built. Mary Ellen, sister of William, was a schoolteacher and was persuaded to come to teach school in Lago, especially since her husband, Lorenzo Barnes Rodeback had come to build their homes. They bought a section of property from Joseph Wright and moved their family from Cedar Fort, Utah.

Charles II and William Bassett were the only two who stayed and lived out their lives in Lago. They were half brothers, Charles being the son of Permelia Mindwell Dayton, first wife of Charles Henry Bassett I: William was the son of Mary Knight, second wife.

William Henry was born in Salt Lake City on 14 March 1858. At the age of eighteen he was sent to Cedar Fort, Utah to manage the Z.C.M.I. store. It was there he met the twin daughters of Bishop Cook. Janette and Marette . He courted Marette and married her on 2 October 1876.They were the parents of seven children, Lutie, Grantley, Harry, and Clarence born in Cedar Fort; Sophoronia, Ross, and Adelia were born in Lago, Idaho

In 1881 Will and his brothers started operations of a stage freight line from Beaver Canyon (near Spencer Idaho) to Yellowstone Park and other places. The family spent their summers in the park and the winters in Cedar Fort until the Bassett Brothers homesteaded in Lago, Then they would spend their winters there.

In the spring they would round up their horses, which were around 60 head, and take their families and travel to the Park for the summer. Their home in Beaver Canyon was so near the railroad tracks that the house would shake and rumble when a train went by.

William H Bassett with his brothers Charles H Bassett Jr, and C.J. Bassett continued to operate this stage line until about 1889 at which time they disposed of the business.

Until the time of his death Mr. Bassett gave his whole time to his farming and stock raising operations in Gentile Valley which he had established and built up along with the stage and freight business at Beaver Canyon.

Some years after closing his business at Beaver Canyon, Mr Bassett established a general merchantise Store at Lago in Gentile Valley. After the Bassett Store was built the post office was moved from the Lusher home to the store. The store and post office were somewhat of a community center for this rural section and his home a large factor in the community social life.
Mr Bassett passed away on December 29, 1929 following an automobile accident. He was buried in the Lago Cemetery.

Marette was very active in community and church affairs. She was an accomplished seamstress and did exceptionally fine handwork. She loved sewing for others. She made beautiful wedding gowns for her two oldest daughters, Sophronia and Lutie. She also gave very freely of her time in helping other members of her family.

She passed away on 10 May 1931. She was buried by her husband in the Lago cemetery.

William married COOK, Marette (Twin) on 2 Oct 1876 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Ut. Marette (daughter of COOK, Henry Freeman and STROBRIDGE, Sophronia) was born on 17 Mar 1856 in Cedar Forte, Utah, Ut; died on 10 May 1931 in Lago, Caribou, Id; was buried on 13 May 1931 in Lago Cemetary, Caribou, Id.

Lars and Maria were born in Denmark -April 23, 1831 and 10 Nov 1838 his profession was a tailor. They were the parents of four children, three boys and one girl. Peter was the oldest and then came the twins Martha and Christen, and Julius was the youngest. They joined the Mormon church and wanted to come to America, but thry didn't have the money to all come together. They sent their oldest son Peter and their daughter Martha first. Peter was twelve and Martha was ten. They came to Mantua, Utah where they worked for their living. Peter herded sheep and Martha worked as a servant. Maria and the two younger boys came next. When Mr Hansen arrived they made their home in Odgen. Mr Hansen and the boys made their living by going to the canyon and cutting firewood. They hauled it to what was called the tie yard. This was located where the First National Bank now stands in Odgen. They sold the wood, thus making their living. Later they moved to Mantua where they made their living by herding milk cows, taking them out in the morning and bringing them home at night. They were paid accorded to the distance they had to travel; so much for the first canyon, more for the second canyon and so on. When the Jens Swensens and the Christen Mickelsens came to Gentile Valley, now Lago, in the fall of 1878, the Hansen's joined them on the journey. They homesteaded 40 acres of the place now owned by Jack Hubbard. Mr Hansen passed away 2 August 1898 and Mrs Hansen sold the farm to her son Julius. Her daughter Martha, married Neils Peterson and moved to Swan Valley. Mrs Hansen passed away 2 August 1918. She was buried in the Lago cemetary next to her Husband. Gems of Our Valley 1977 page 391

Notes:

Niels Christian and Maren Anderson Mickelsen were both born in Denmark. They were both converts to the church. She came to this country as a young girl. She came to Salt Lake City with a pioneer company (probably the John R. Murdock Company, 1862) at age 21, enduring all the customary hardships.

Christen came from Denmark with his parents and two brothers. They came from New York to Utah on the train. He met and married Maren in Salt Lake City. They were among those sent to help settle Huntsville, Utah.

Christen went back to Denmark and served a two year mission. This placed severe hardships on his young wife.

They were the parents of five children: Mary, (who passed away as a young woman), Peter, Dorthea, Helmar and Chris.

They came to Gentile Valley in 1878 and homesteaded the place now owned by the Louis Bitton family.

Maren passed away while still young, leaving a young family for her husband to raise.
Christen married again, raised his family, then sold the farm and moved to Preston Idaho. Sometime later he moved to California where he died.

Both Maren and Christen are buried in the old pioneer cemetary in Lago.

Bud (Clarence Hansen) remembers hearing that a friend from Huntsville wrote Christian and told him to "Come up to heaven". The neighbor was speaking of Lago. So the family came up and settled on the north fork of Trout Creek. A diptheria edemic struck the family in 1896. A daughter Malena died and another daughter. Helma recovered but was left deaf.

Joseph Olorenshaw was born March 6, 1869, in coventry, Warwick, England. He came to the United States with his parents when he was five years old. They settled in Salt Lake City, Utah. There were seven children in this family and three of them were born deaf; Joseph, Thomas and a girl who died when she was one year old.

When Joseph was a youth he worked in a printing office and attended the deaf school in Odgen, Utah. It was at this school that he met his future wife, Helmer Mickelsen, who was also deaf. They were married Dec 30, 1899. They lived in Salt Lake City about two years. They moved to Lago, Idaho in 1901 when their son James was born . Their daughter Lena was born there. They later moved to Grace and took up a farm west of town. For the first three years they spent winters in Lago helping Mrs. Olorenshaw's father with his farm chores and then returned to Grace in the spring to plant their crops. ( Helmer from Gems of our Valley pg 439)

The oldest brother, Peter, married Annie Leffler. They had a son called Jimmy and a pair of twin girls. Peter later homesteaded in the Tetons. His brother Chris was there also. They married sisters and each had large families. Bud (Clarence Hansen) thinks that Martin may have also been affected with the diptheria, however he did not pass away untl 1902.

After Maren died Christen sold his farm to the Becksteads, remarried, and eventually moved to California. Upon his death each of the four living children recieved an inheritance of $6,000.

Niels married ANDERSON, Maren (Mary Ann). Maren (daughter of JORGENSEN, Anders and CHRISTENSEN, Kirsten) was born on 15 Dec 1841 in Hjellemskjaer, , Hjorring, Denmark; died on 7 Jul 1898 in Lago Pioneer Cemetary, Caribou, Idaho USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Bishop of Cedar Valley Ward from 1861 to 1881- Died in 1881

CEDAR VALLEY WARD, Lehi Stake, Utah Co, Utah consists of the Latter-Day Saints residing in the north end of Cedar Valley, which is a fine but poorly watered valley extending north and south for 22 miles; it is 7 miles wide. Cedar Valley comprises the west part of Utah County and is separated from the Utah Valley proper on the east by a low range of mountains, and from Rush Valley in Tooele County on the west by another low range of mountains. Cedar Fort and Fairfield are the only settlements in the valley and they are both small. As water is very scarce, dry farming has been tried quite successfully. Cedar Fort is situated in the north end of the valley, 40 miles by nearest road southwest of Salt Lake City and 15 miles southwest of Lehi. Most of the people in the north end of Cedar Valley reside in Cedar Fort.
Cedar Valley was first settled by Latter-Day Saints in October, 1852, when Alfred Bell and others located a settlement in the north end of the valley, which was called Cedar Fort. In 1853 other settlers moved in and on April 3, 1853, the saints who had located at Cedar Fort were organized into a ward called Cedar Fort Ward, with Allen Weeks as Bishop. Because of Indian troubles, the settlement was temporarily broken up three times, but a stone fort, 133 feet square, with walls ten feet high and four feet thick, was built in 1855. At that time the Church membership of the little settlement was 115 souls. Through scarcity of water the settlers in Cedar Valley have had a hard struggle to live, but the settlement nevertheless has survived all difficulties. Bishop Weeks presided until 1876, when he was succeeded by Henry F. Cook, who in 1882 was succeeded by Eli Bennett, who in 1906 was suceeded by William Cook, who in 1911 was suceeded by James E Garn, who in 1917 was suceeded by Orson E. Hacking, who in 1922 was suceeded by Jacob L. Hales, who presided Dec. 31, 1930; on that date the ward had 179 members, including 35 children.

Henry married STROBRIDGE, Sophronia on 9 Apr 1837 in , Ny. Sophronia (daughter of STROBRIDGE, George Augusta and GULL (OR LULL), Abigail) was born on 14 Mar 1813 in Solon, Cortland, Ny; died on 24 Jul 1909 in Cedar Fort, Utah, Ut; was buried in Jul 1909 in Cedar Fort Cemet, Cedar Fort, Utah, Ut.

Notes:

Joseph Knight, one of the earliest members of the Church, was an American by birth, though the exact place and date of birth is not known. He was well advanced in years when the work of the Lord in these last days began to come forth . From the journal of his son, Newel Knight, it is learned that Joseph Knight Sen., married Polly Peck; that he moved into the State of New York in 1809, and settled on the Susquehanna river, near the great Bend, in the township of Bainbridge, Chenango county. Two years later he moved to Colesville, Broome county, NY, where he remained nineteen years. "My father," says Newel Knight in his journal owned a farm, a grist mill and carder machine. He was not rich, yet he possessed enough of this world's goods to secure to himself and family, not only the necessities, but also for the comforts of life. His family, consisting of my mother, three sons and four daughters, he reared in a genteel and respectable manner and gave his children a good common school education. My father was a sober, honest man, generally respectedd and beloved by his neighbors and acquaintances . He did not belong to any religious sect, but was a believer in the universalian doctrine." The business in which Joseph Knight, sen., engaged made it necessary at times for him to hire men, and the Prophet Joseph was occasionally employed by him. To the Knight family, who were greatly attached to him, the young prophet related many of the things God had revealed respecting the Book of Mormon, then as yet to come forth, So far at least was the elder Knight taken in to the Prophet's confidence that he purposely so arranged his affairs as to be at the Smith family residence near Manchester, at the time the plates of the Book of Mormon were given into Joseph's possession. Mr. Knight had driven to the Smith residence with a horse and carriage, and in this conveyance, according to the statement of both Lucy Smith, mother of the Prophet (see Lucy Smith's History of the Prophet Joseph Smith, chapter 23), and Joseph Knight sen., Joseph in company with his wife Emma drove away very early-- before daylight--on the morning of Sept. 22nd, 1827-- it is presumed, of course the Prophet drove to the hill Cumorah and there received from Moroni the plates of the Book of Mormon, etc. Mr. Knight remained at the Smith residence at Manchester, several days and was there the day Joseph brought home the plates, and in company with Joseph Smith, sen., and Mr. Stoal-- who was also present at the Smith residence in company with Mr. Knight-- went in search of those men who had assailed the Prophet while on his way home with the plates, but they did not find them. Joseph Smith in his history of Aug. 22, 1842, refers to Joseph Knight in the following endearing terms: "I am now recording in the Book of Law of the Lord, of such as have stood by me every hour of peril, for instance, my aged and beloved brother, Joseph Knight, sen., who was among the number of the first to administer to my necessities, while I was laboring in the commencement of the bringing forth of the work of the Lord and of laying the foundation of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter -day Saints. For fifteen years he has been faithful and true, and even-handed, and exemplary, and virturous, and kind , never deviating to the right hand or to the left. Behold he is a righteous man; may God Almighty lengthen out the old man's days; and may his trembling, tortured and broken body be renewed and the viggo of health turn upon him, if it be thy will, consistently, O God; and it shall be said of him by the sons of Zion, while there is one of them remaining, that this man was a faithful man in Israel, therefore his name shall never be forgotten. There are his sons , Newel Knight and Joseph Knight, jun., whose names I record in the Book of the Law of the Lord with unspeakable delight, for they are my friends."
("Mill. Star" 19:756.)
