Excerpt from Proceedings at the Dedication of the Joseph Smith Memorial Monument: At Sharon, Windsor County, Vermont, December 23rd, 1905The first view of the beautiful shaft of the monument, on the summit of a. Hill close to the cottage erected over and around the hearthstone of the old Smith home, caused ejaculations of astonishment and admiration from the approaching Saints. The company gath ered in the cottage and while a gentle snow was falling, talked with Elder Wells, congratulating him on his grand achievement, and in turn, learning from him many of the particulars of the mighty task. Shortly following the arrival of the Utah party and the visit ing friends, throngs of people from the farms scattered over the hillsides and from the various settlements, com meneca to arrive, until the spacious cottage was crowded in every apart ment and many gathered around the building curiously and eagerly wait ing for the services to begin. Promptly at 11 o'clock, President Joseph F. Smith, from the large living room, called the assembled multitude to order, while Elder John G. Mcquarie, assisted by a number of Elders, departed from the building to the base of the monument, fwhere fitting services were held in behalf of the many who were unable to gain admittance to the cottage.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
