Letter from George Armstrong Hicks, 15 April 1894
Pres't Wilford Woodruff
S L City Dear Sir:
A friend, today, handed me the Salt
Lake Herald of Apr. 11th (Semiweekly)
containing your remarks, at the
late Conference, concerning John D. Lee
and the Mountain Meadows Massacre.
I thank you most Sincerly for
raising Such noble Sentiments
as you did. I have suffered much
for expressing the same opinions,
in regard to Lee, twenty five
years ago. I was a candidate for the
office of J. P., in this city, in [18]92
when one Wm Creer, who is a priest
of 70s in the 50th Quorum, urged the
fact against me that I had "ex
-posed the M. M. Massacre" which he
then charged as a crime which, should
disqualify me for holding office amon
among the people of this territory
