[In early September 1857, approximately 120 emigrants were killed at Mountain Meadows, a resting spot on the California Trail in southern Utah. Only the youngest children of the party were spared. It was later learned that the perpetrators were local Mormon militia men allied with Indians. Ed.] 5. Of the three Hopi mesas, the westernmost is designated Third, the middle is Second, and the easternmost First Mesa. 6. Progressive Hopi recognized the need for allies in the long struggle against their traditional enemies, the Navajos, but none appear to have perceived Mormon motivation for cultivating them. 7.

Smith, Jr.," October 20, 1860, LDS. The young man wrote entries through September 16, but Hamblin carried on in Smith's name from October 10 through November l. 16. Ibid., October 26,1860. 17. Hamblin said three Hopi joined the trip and they crossed the Ute Ford on January 1, 1863.John Steele, who kept ajournal during the trip (LDS) stated that four Hopi came to them and the crossing was made December 30,1862. Since Hamblin told his story to Little about eighteen years after this episode, it could be assumed that his memory was not as accurate as Steele's journal. The fourth Hopi probably was Lye, a loner who traveled on his own. See Little, Narrative, 78-79. 18...
