Grant N. Mildenhall letter and newspaper clippings
Scope and Contents
Photocopies of a typewritten letter, photographs, and newspaper clippings. The clippings were taken from the 1877 editions of Salt Lake Tribune newspaper. Mildenhall writes to "Duane" arguing that the whites killed during Utah's Black Hawk War (1865-68) and during other Indian uprisings in Utah were not killed by Indians but by Freemasons and Mormons. Mildenhall says that these and many other killings in Mormon and Utah history were done according to the Mormon doctrine of Blood Atonement.
