The massacre of 120 emigrant men, women, and children at
Mountain Meadows on September 11, 1857, by Mormons and
Mormon-incited Indians shocked the nation. It was not until the
spring of 1859 that federal authorities began to conduct inquiries
into the massacre. Bvt. Major James H. Carleton, 1st Dragoons, was
instructed to investigate the even while en route to Salt Lake
City. Carleton's account of May 1859 from the bone-strewn ground is
full, accurate, and understandably emotional.
