<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>they had a wonderful program on the travel channel
or one of those. they also had a list of the folk that were killed.
i believe there was a scapegoat named to accept the responsibilityof the
massacre but of course he was no more responsible for much of anything.its been
some time since i have seen the program but it appeared they had the facts
pretty straight. the fault seemed to lay with someone who couldn't or
wouldn't accept them. this massacre was also something the church would
not discuss. the people that did talk seemed to think that after being
pushed around and forced to abandon their homes several times it was more than a
fear of the past that caused this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the movie was well worth watching.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Gary, you are quite right. Mountain Meadows
was the site of a Mormon massacre of non-Mormon immigrants to
California.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There are a lot of books published about the
attack and its aftermath...several by Mormons. There was a ceremony at
the site some years ago, and Mo Udall's family (the congressman from Arizona)
was involved in raising the commemorative stone at the site. Google up
Mountain Meadows and read a lot. Bob Casebeer</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>I don't have a personal interest in this, but some of you historians
that have an interest in some portion of this. If someone wants the
attachment, I can send it to you personally.</DIV>

<DIV>Hello! My name is Brian Patrick. I wanted to let you know
about a special event that is coming up. I am bringing my film,
"Burying The Past -- Legacy of The Mountain Meadows Massacre" up to Oregon
for a special showing in the Bend Film Festival. I have attached a
flyer with all of the information. I am trying to get the word out
there. This is a very unique film about an event that most people
have never even learned of -- even though it is one of the biggest
massacres in the history of the West. I think many people would be
very grateful to learn of the showing, as this is the only chance for them
to see the film and ask questions to the director, along with some of the
massacre descendants. Burr Fancher who lives in Oregon is one of the
massacre descendants featured in the film who is planning to be
there. Please let anyone know who you think might be interested in
attending (it would really help me get the word out there if you would be
kind enough to print the flyer and post it). You can also visit my
website at <A class=moz-txt-link-abbreviated
href="http://www.buryingthepast.com">www.buryingthepast.com</A>
where DVD and VHS copies of the film are available.
<BR>Thank you very much
for your time.<BR><BR>Best Wishes,<BR><BR>Brian Patrick<BR></DIV>
