  • Notes: 
  • Luther died on his way to Utah with the Mormons. Here is an excerpt from the diary of Jonathan Oldham Duke: "Crossed the Missouri and started on the 13 of June and traveled 12 miles and camped at a point of timber[.] this night brother [Luther] Warner was taken sick with the Cholera. 14th. Capt Bennett thought it expedient for the company to move on leaving our ten to take care of Br Warner Who died the same day[.] after intering him as decently as circumstances would admit this evening we held a meeting in which while I was speaking the spirit of the Lord came upon me[.] I rebuked the destroyer and prophesized that inasmuch as our company of ten would be faithful the destroyer should have no more power over us."
