a.
From the torn down bowery on temple square
b.
From Utah mines

wagons during the Utah War of 1857

Yesterday’s
answer:
C) The Saints alternated Sundays
This building was extremely small,
approximately 30 x 38 feet. Even though the Prophet states that attendance was
good during the School of the Elders, we do know that it was small enough that
it could not house every one for Sunday worship. It became the practice for the
members to take turns attending their Sunday meetings so that everyone could
have a chance to worship.
