Growing up hearing stories of the Mormon Pioneers, that is the first time I have heard that story. Their faith and their sacrifices saved many. Those quilts must have been extremely sturdy

So their horses were attached to their wagon for 10 to 14 days with no food and water???? Doesn't sound right.

This also points out to me the community that covered miles and not just blocks in towns. Every one helped all others. I wish the world was more like this now!
