This forms a part of the report on Indian tribes of Utah and their condition. 

 The massacre occurred Sept. 11, 1857. It was attributed to Pah-TJte Indians, 

 and was committed by them jointly with white men, many of whom were said to 

 be Mormons, disguised as Indians. The victims were a train of emigrants from 

 Arkansas, about 120 in number, men, women, and children. Only 17 were spared, 

 all children, too young to give trustworthy accounts of the crime. John D. Lee 

 was many years later arrested charged with leadership in the massacre. After 

 trial and conviction he was executed by shooting Mar. 23, 1877, on the scene of 

 the massacre.
