Yesterday’s answer:
B Portions of the bar and door
From the life of Orson Ferguson Whitney: At Liberty he
and his party, which included Pres. Samuel O. Bennion of the Central States
Mission, were permitted to enter the building that was formerly Liberty Jail,
where the Prophet Joseph Smith and other Church leaders were imprisoned during
that winter of 1838-39, the period that witnessed the expulsion of the
Latter-day Saints from Missouri. The basement of the building—the former
dungeon—remains very much as it was, but a modern residence has been erected
above it. Elder Whitney secured, by purchase, a fragment of the old jail door,
also two iron bars of the jail window, and afterwards presented them to
President Joseph F. Smith, with the suggestion that they be placed in the
Deseret Museum; a suggestion acted upon.
