Frank Warner

Frank Warner, a full-blooded Northern Shoshoni Indian, survived what massacre as an infant after receiving seven bullet wounds?


A)                 Wounded Knee

B)                 The Battle of Provo River

C)                 The Bear River Massacre

D)                 Custer’s Last Stand

Yesterday’s answer:

c.   William Penn

At the time Box Elder was first settled, it was regarded as dangerous Indian territory, but Bishop Davis followed William Penn’s advice of feeding the Indians instead of fighting them—a policy taught and impressed also by the wisdom of President Brigham Young, and by following this maxim Bishop Davis won the hearts of the red men and they were ever his friends.  They used to call him “The Captain” and he was always able to get along with them except when they were on the warpath.


The following history of WILLIAM DAVIS was taken from a manuscript on file in the Brigham City, UT, city library; htpp://www.boap.org/
