INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. Wlien an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy. Requests can be made to our Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases we have filmed the best available copy.

Ludden Francis Richardson id v iser Department of the History of Art PREFACE When the Mormons were driven from Nauvoo, Illinois in 1846, they were forced to abandon their tsnple, which had become the focus of their existence. So important was the tanple to the unity of the Church, that Brigham Young desired that another be built soon after their arrival in Utah. Circumstances delayed its beginning until 1853» when the cornerstone was laid. The next forty years were spent in its completion at which time the Salt Lake Temple became the cen ter of Moimonism. I have always had a particular interest in the Salt Lake Temple; but it was not until 1970, on a suggestion by Professor Felix Heap at the University of Utah, that I began to research the building. To my surprise, no one had written an architectural monograph on such an important monument. This stimulated my interest to pursue such a study. In 1972, the Temple became the subject of my dissertation on the advice of Professor Leland Roth then at The Ohio State University. Since 1974 , P ro fesso r Mathew Herban I I I has acted as the chairman of of my dissertation committee. It is to him that I acknowledge appre­ ciation for his support and unselfish interest in my behalf. His counsel and suggestions have given direction and substance to the study.

    “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: the Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple

    Alexander L. Baugh: Baptism for the Dead Outside Temples 47 “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: The Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple Alexander L. Baugh The Elders’ Journal of July 1838, published in Far West, Missouri, includ- ed a series of twenty questions related to Mormonism. The answers to the questions bear the editorial pen of Joseph Smith. Question number sixteen posed the following query: “If the Mormon doctrine is true, what has become of all those who have died since the days of the apostles?” The Prophet answered, “All those who have not had an opportunity of hearing the gospel, and being administered to by an inspired man in the flesh, must have it hereafter before they can be finally judged.”1 The Prophet’s thought is clear—the dead must have someone in mortality administer the saving ordinances for them to be saved in the kingdom of God. Significantly, the answer given by the Prophet marks his first known statement concerning the doctrine of vicari- ous work for the dead. However, it was not until more than two years later that the principle was put into practice.2 On 15 August 1840, Joseph Smith preached the funeral sermon of Seymour Brunson during which time he declared for the first time the doc- trine of baptism for the dead.3 Unfortunately, there are no contemporary accounts of the Prophet’s discourse. However, Simon Baker was present at the funeral services and later stated that during the meeting the Prophet read extensively from 1 Corinthians 15, then noted a particular widow in the congregation whose son had died without baptism.

  • 02Walk.Tour.Guts

    North Downtown Heritage Tour The early history of Salt Lake City is dominated by the story of its Mormon settlers. These settlers came to Utah as a centrally-organized group dedicated to establishing their vision of a perfect society—the Kingdom of God on earth. Accordingly, there was no distinction between religious and secular life in early Salt Lake City. Leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints directed the community’s economic life, shaped its social life, and even molded its family life. The north end of Salt Lake City’s downtown is a good place to view buildings and sites that reflect the city’s early Mormon heritage. Church leaders, cultural institutions, business enter- prises, and church offices tended to cluster near Temple Square, the geographic heart of the Mormon utopia. Within 20 years of Salt Lake City’s founding, the commu- nity began to diversify. The completion of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 made it much easier for immigrants from around the world to reach Utah. Not all the people who settled in Salt Lake City fit the Mormon vision of members of a perfect society. Nor did these new immigrants always share the Mormon community’s goals. This tour also highlights some of the buildings and sites that represent Salt Lake City’s growth and diversification after its settlement period. Your walk through north downtown’s history will take about one hour. The tour ends on Main Street just one half block south of the starting point at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building.

From the moment we arrived at the Stake Center in Hurricane we were warmly greeted and pointed in the direction of a registration area organized according to alphabet sections for “no wait” efficiency. A look into the cultural hall revealed walls that had been adorned with pictorial histories of the communities in Hurricane Valley. Tables were set and beautifully decorated for the evening meal. The food throughout the convention was tasty, especially the delicious prime rib served at the concluding banquet on Saturday. Rave reviews were received from patrons of all three tours that were offered with the transportation organized to function in perfect sequence. Hosts on the buses entertained with stories of pioneering development in the local communities. Evening entertainment was of Broadway quality and had us as the audience clapping hands and tapping feet in rhythm with the music. The talent displayed on both nights was jaw dropping! Elder Gerald Lund’s concluding address was masterfully tailored to the Convention theme: “Moving Our Heritage Forward.” Conclusion: The folks in Hurricane really know how to host a memorable National Convention!

    Courtney Cain, Ph.D. 2017 Letter from the Chair

    University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign www.history.illinois.edu Spring 2018 Courtney Cain, Ph.D. 2017 Letter from the Chair uring the past year, from Charlottesville to the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s launching of the Protestant Reformation to the centennial of the Russian Revolution Dand the sesquicentennial of our beloved University of Illinois, we were continuously reminded of the ways in which history impacts our present. Events also strengthened our conviction that historians and lovers of history must vigorously engage public discourse. Our job is not merely to set the record straight but also to add complexity and multiple perspec- tives to what might seem to be simple issues. Commitment to history as a form of civic engagement is what led many of our own faculty and graduate students to our discipline and it continues to drive our teaching and research. Over the past year, it has been thrilling to see our undergraduate students adopt this passion and reach out to share it with new audiences. This could take the form of Hidden History tours of campus conducted by public history students based on their own research projects. Or it could transform the airwaves via the People’s History Hour radio show, created by two of our majors. One of them, Nick Goodell, spoke for all of us when he declared, “History seems to me to be the best way to understand our world.” Clare Crowston The pages of this newsletter reflect our colleagues’ close engagement with a number of important anniversaries and historical events. Perhaps closest to our hearts is the 150th anniversary of the founding of our own university.

    President Wilford Woodruff's Manifesto Ending the Sanction of Plural Marriage

    President Wilford Woodruff's Manifesto ending the sanction of plural marriage. To Whom It May Concern: Press dispatches having been sent for political purposes, from Salt Lake City, which have been widely published, to the effect that the Utah Commission, in their recent report to the Secretary of the Interior, allege that plural marriages are still being solemnized and that forty or more such marriages have been contracted in Utah since last June or during the past year, also that in public discourses the leaders of the Church have taught, encouraged and urged the continuance of the practice of polygamy— I, therefore, as President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, do hereby, in the most solemn manner, declare that these charges are false. We are not teaching polygamy or plural marriage, nor permitting any person to enter into its practice, and I deny that either forty or any other number of plural marriages have during that period been solemnized in our Temples or in any other place in the Territory. One case has been reported, in which the parties allege that the marriage was performed in the Endowment House, in Salt Lake City, in the Spring of 1889, but I have not been able to learn who performed the ceremony; whatever was done in this matter was without my knowledge. In consequence of this alleged occurrence the Endowment House was, by my instructions, taken down without delay. Inasmuch as laws have been enacted by Congress forbidding plural marriages, which laws have been pronounced constitutional by the court of last resort, I hereby declare my intention to submit to those laws, and to use my influence with the members of the Church over which I preside to have them do likewise.

    NAUVOO's TEMPLE It Was Announced August 31, 1840, That A

    NAUVOO’S TEMPLE Dean E. Garner—Institute Director, Denton, Texas t was announced August 31, 1840, that a temple would be built, and Iarchitectural plans began to come in. Joseph Smith “advertised for plans for the temple,” William Weeks said, “and several architects presented their plans. But none seemed to suit Smith. When [William] presented his plans, Joseph Smith grabbed him, hugged him and said, ‘You are the man I want.’”1 Thus William was made superintendent of temple construction. All his work was cleared by the temple building committee. Those on the committee were Reynolds Cahoon, Elias Higbee, and Alpheus Cutler.2 Joseph Smith had the final say pertaining to the details of the temple, for he had seen the temple in vision, which enabled him to make decisions on the temple’s appearance.3 During the October Conference of 1840, the building of the Nauvoo During the temple was voted on and accepted by the saints. The temple was to be October Conference constructed of stone. Many weeks preceding the conference, a survey of Nauvoo’s main street verified that the entire route was underlain with a of 1840, the building massive layer of limestone many feet thick, particularly so in the northern of the Nauvoo part of the community. That site was selected for the quarry, where quality white-gray Illinois limestone could be extracted for the construction of temple was voted the temple. The principal quarry from which the temple stone would on and accepted by come was opened within ten days of the conference. Work in the quarry began October 12, 1840, with Elisha Everett striking the first blow.4 the saints.
