Endurance and crops saved by grasshopper drives in early life
A narrative recounts schoolhouse dangers from roof collapse during rain and adobe walls spreading. A grasshopper invasion was halted after a massive cloud hovered the meeting house and the insects were driven into ditches and drowned to save crops. The tale covers life as secretary of the Young Ladies Reenchingment, teaching in Sunday school for fifty two years, and marriage to James Hacking in Salt Lake City on August 28 1876.
