Aged Pioneer
Dies at Lund
WILLIAM VANCE, ACQUAINTANCE
OF FOUNDER OF MORMON RE-
LIGION, AND PATHFINDER IN
UTAH. PASSES AWAY AT 03.

William P Vance. the last survivor
of the first hand cart company that
crossed the plains sixty-seven years
ago and landed in Utah, and inti-
mate friend of Joseph Smith, the
founder of the Mormon church, died
last Saturday at Lund. The old path
finder was SO years of age.
Mr. Vance was born in Tennessee
October 20. 1922. His parents NOV
ed to Illinois when he was a mere
child, and joined the Latter Day
Saints at the time when the followers
of the prophet, Joseph Smith, were
driven out of Missouri and sought a
haven at Nauvoo, Illinois. He lived
for six months with the founder of
the Mormon church, and was we'll
acquainted with the leader of. the
new religious creed.
Compelled to abandon Nauvoo in
1916, Vance and his companions
crossed the Mississippi river on the
ice. and spent the winter months in
the settlement which was commonly
known as Winter Quarters. He was
designated as a member of the first
pioneer company in the spring of
1847, and after suffering intolerable
hardships he reached what is now
Salt Lake on July %. 1S47. two days
before the arrival of the main COM
pany.
During his early residence in Utah
territory. Mr.. Vance was actively
identified with the upbuilding of the
common wealth. He was a member of
the party that was sent out by the
church authorities to catch fish in
Utah lake in order that the settlers
might be provided with food. He af-
filiated with a company that was
sent to establish settlements in Iron
county in 1S49. Six years later he
was instrumental in sending out a
colony to what now constitutes the
town of Las Vegas. and remained in
the southern part of the state two
years.
Mr.. Vance participated in the Echo
canyon war in the winter of 1857,
and a year later he took part in the
mixups between the Mormons and the
federal troops when a bitter strug-
gle was narrowly averted. After a
career that was filled with thrilling
incidents. Mr.. Vance removed to
Lund about seventeen years ago
with his sons In spite of his advanc-
ed age and increasing infirmites, Mr..
Vance always took an active part in
public affairs. and delivered an inter-
esting address last October in COM
memoration of President Wilson S
proclamation in regard to Peace
Sunday"
The aged man is survived by a
widow and six children, Mrs. r. d
Mckenzie. Mrs. G.. H. Gubler and
William A Vance of Ely, Mrs. Jo-
seph L. Jackson of Lund and Joseph
A. and John NJ. Vance of Sunnyside
The funeral occurred last Tuesday
from the family home at Lund. and
all his children were present.
