QUOTE OF THE DAY Howard W. Hunter
"I want to say to all within the sound of my voice tonight that you have every reason in this world to be happy and to be optimistic and to be confident. Every generation since time began has had some things to overcome and some problems to work out. Furthermore, every individual person has a particular set of challenges that sometimes seem to be earmarked for us individually. We understood that in our premortal existence" ("An Anchor to the Souls of Men," BYU Speeches, February 7, 1993).

TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY June 29
1844 - Before a public funeral, over ten thousand Saints view the bodies of Joseph and Hyrum Smith at the Mansion House in Nauvoo, Illinois. The west door opened at 8:00 a.m. and a stream of people entered, viewed the bodies, and exited out the north door of the Mansion House until 5:00 p.m. The family then paid their last respects to the fallen Prophet and Patriarch. Two decoy coffins are filled with sand and are buried during the public ceremony. William W. Phelps preached the funeral sermon. Fear of a bounty on the head of the Prophet led Emma to have the real coffins containing the bodies buried secretly in the basement of the unfinished Nauvoo House across the street from the Mansion House at about midnight.
