[7]Laban Morrill was an early Mormon settler of Utah. Brigham Young asked him to help colonize and build Johnson's Fort. Over the years, Morrill was a resident of several of the nearby townships. . See also Laban Morrill was present at a meeting of the high council in Cedar City to discuss a wagon train of emmigrants passing through Utah on the way to California. The council favored attacking the emmigrants, though Laban Morrill was against it, and persuaded the group to wait until they could obtain the consent of Brigham Young. Ultimately, the attack took place without consent, and became known as the Mountain Meadow Massacre. Laban Morrill testified against John D. Lee, the only man tried and convicted of crimes. Much of what is known today about the massacre comes from the record of his testimony. . |
