The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 89: December 29, 1927 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 89: December 29, 1927 One of the most beautiful pictures given in all literature is the picture of those parents going out to meet enemies who came against them with swords; and they sacrificed their lives rather than uncover the swords that they had buried and given their word not to unearth. One thousand of those parents suffered death rather than violate their covenant. Meeting no resistance, the enemy being conscience-stricken stopped the massacre after a thousand men had proved that they preferred death to the violation Of a trust.
