Participate
in the dance
On November
29, 1855, a special dance was held in the Social Hall to welcome back
missionaries retuning from foreign lands. Jedediah M. Grant of the First
Presidency directed the proceedings, noting that “those missionaries that
cannot dance, and do not try, we shall consider have not fulfilled their
missions this evening. He then led off in the dance, which he excepted in right
and good earnest. The whole company caught the electric spark, and ‘good
earnest’ characterized the exercises of the evening. . . . When the evening was
well advanced, and the party had exercised themselves much in the dance,
President Grant addressed the returned missionaries.”
