QUOTE OF THE DAY Joseph Smith
“He that does not strive with all his powers of body and mind, with all his influence at home and abroad—and cause others to do so too—to seek peace and maintain it for his own benefit and convenience, and for the honor of his State, nation, and country, has no claim on the clemency [mercy] of man; nor should he be entitled to the friendship of woman or the protection of government” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith, p. 342).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY July 18 |
|
1853 - The Walker War, a conflict between the Latter-day Saint settlers and local Native Americans, begins when Chief Wakara (Chief Walker) and his followers were camped on Spring Creek near Springville, Utah, and an altercation over trade took place in which a Mormon settler killed a Ute and wounded two others. Wakara demanded the killer be brought before him. His request was refused. This incident precipitated the Walker (Wakara) War. The war was mainly a series of raids led by Wakara on the Mormon settlements. Utes attacked Fort Payson; the Mormon Nauvoo Legion responded.
