Twas the Spring of 1864 -- Seven years after the Mormons had massacred 120 children & their parents -- and the Mormons decided to "salute" RLDS missionaries in the Provo area with a "volley of rocks"

There was an incident where four RLDS missionaries appeared in Utah and signed up more than 400 converts in less than one week. The missionaries were quickly driven from the state and the strays were atoned back into the flock.

Perhaps these two incidents are related?

My Family were RLDS and disliked polygamy, my GGGrandmother was quite out spoken about it. Didn't stop my GGrandfather from holding all of the offices up to Stake Patriarch, many are still bishops in their local Wards.
