used for Sabbath meetings, and other
purposes, as well as a school house.
1t was built in 1913, and was occu-
pied as a stable during the later years
OF its existence. The accompanying
illustration gives a good idea OF it.
The first ward meeting house was
built one b.ocl; south Of it, facing
cast.
The illustration Of a typical cot
tlge Of the early hliies is oil a res
idencc that was buil- next door north
OF the school house named, and was
occupied as a dwelling for forty
years, when it was taken down. 1t
is a model OF scores of cottages
erected in the years Immediately
succeeding the construction OF the
Old Fort, and a good type OF a pre-
vailing style of architecture in dwell
ings in the carly iilties.
One of the first public buildings
Of note that were erected in Salt
Lake City was the Tabernacle which
stood on the present site OF the
Assembly hall 1t was begun about
the time the city was divided into
wards, viz, about 1919, and was
finished in or about the close of
1851. 1t was a long structure,
semi-cylindrical in form, and would
seat from 5000 to 4 900 persons. 1t
was built of adobes and well served
the purpose for which it was de-
signed, namely, religious worship.
1t was demolished about twenty-one
years ago to make room for the
present Assembly hall.
Almost simultaneously with the
erection OF the old Tabernacle, was
constructed the historic building
known as the Council House. 1t
was completed in time for the Leg
i,lative session held during the
winter of IS5f-2, and was then
sometimes called the Territorial
house. 1t had two high stories sur
mounted by a tower, and was al
most exactly square, It's sides meas
uring about forty feet. Many SEES
sions of the Legislature were held in
it, and the University of Utah, then
known as the University of Dcseret,
occupied it for many years. 1t was
always used for meeting OF various

kinds up to its destruction by fire in
June, 1888. Many historic scenes
and events occurred within its walls,
and many historic memories are sug-
gested by its name.
The world-flmed Tabernacle that
is still the chief house OF public wor-
ship by the Latter-day Saints, was de-
signed by President Brigham Young,
and was completed and dedicated in
1909. 1t will comfortably seat
about 10, 600 persons, and is one of
the largest auditoriums in the world.
1t has the largest seltsupporting
roof in the world, and its organ is
one of the largest ever constructed,
besides possessing rare qualities Of
compass, volume and tone. The
acoustic qualities of the Tabernacle
are remarkably good, and thou
sands of tourists visit it annually,
The modest appearance and di-
mansions of the Social hall would
seem to forbid its classification with
the notable buildings OF the city; but
not a structure that could be named
is more heavily burdened with men,
cries of social pleasures, in the esti-
nation ct the first generation of
young people that lived in the city,
than is this one. 1t was built
in 1889, its dedication occur
ring January l, 1883, and for
many years it was the scene and
center of the drama, the dance, and
social pleasures and events OF various
kinds, During recent years it has
been used for religious meetings and
school purposes. 1t is in an excl

leaves upon their minds a more
pleasing or lasting impression.
1t is said OF the Salt Lake Temple
that of all extremely costly and
world famed buildings, it is the only
one in which architects find no flaw
in style, symmetry or proportion.
In these respects the Salt Lake Tenn
pie is said to defy the most thorough
and astutc critics.
Within "A few years after the diyi-
sion of the city into wards, each
ward had a meeting house which was
also the school house.
The first school house built in a
ward was generally of modest di-
mensions and cost, but in several OF
the wards structures were erected at
an early date which, considering the
conditions under which they were
built we're handsome and highly
crcditablc, and even in this day OF
architectural display answer very
well the purposes for which they
were originally designed. In this
connection may be mentioned the
Thirteenth and Fourteenth ward
meeting houses, and the Brigham
Young school house, near the Eagle
gate. These were all built in the
htiies,

about 5000 souls, a gain Of about
3 1000 during the year. But this
gain does not represent, by a great
deal, the number Of immigrants who
came to Salt Lake valley during the
year, as large numbers of the new
arrivals settled elsewhere than in the
city. New settlements were founded,
both north and south, during the
year,
On August :, 1913, a few days
more than one year after the advent
Of the Pioneers, a count was made
by which it was asccrtained that
there were then in the city 45obuild-
ings. Many others were in course
of construction, and many families
were living in tents, wagons, etc.
In 1870 the city was divided into
nineteen wards, and a bishopric WAS
established over each. These bish-
oprics were the sources OF local
government in their respective wards
secular as well as religious. They
collected and disbur-cd taxes, CON
rollcd in the construction of roads,
bridges and other public improve
mcnts, determined land disputes
and other litigation, and took the
cad in matters pertaining to rclig-
Gus worship. This government by
Bishops was unique and without par

bered something over 1000 souls,
organized into companies of hun
dreds, fties and tens, They
brought 500 wagons. There were
too many OF them to be accommo-
dated in the original fort, and two
additional blocks, or parts OF blocks,
south of it we're settled upon and
enclosed. They were extensions of
the first fort and communicated with
it by gates.
While it was considered hazardous
for family to live outside the fort,
seine of the settlers chose to do 50.
One Of these was Lorenzo d. Young,
who built a log house on City
Creek, northeast of the stockade,
and in December moved into it. 1t
was the first dwelling outside of the
fort, and stood on the present site
OF the Bee Hive house.
Early in the spring Of 1913, the
city lots that had been surveyed be-
gan to be located upon and i'm
proved, and during that year many
dwellings were built in all parts of
the city, both by immigrants that
had arrived during the fall Of tS47,
and by others who came the next
year. What are now the Sixth,
Seventh, Eighth, Twelfth, Thir-
teenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Seven
teenth and Eighteenth wards were
settled and more or less built up
during the year 1913, the streets
being substantially the same then as
now.

as far as possible, to accommodate its
depositors. With this object in view,
the receiving department is kept
open on Saturday nights until s
