This is a photo of the Carthage Jail (located in Carthage, Illinois - 30 minutes away from Nauvoo) where our dear prophet, Joseph Smith Jr. and his brother Hyrum Smith were murdered by a mob on June 27, 1844. Joseph fell from the top window to the ground below to his death by the well. This truly is a sacred place to all of us and is the highlight of many guests visit to the Nauvoo area.

Here I am standing by the well. |

Out in front of the Carthage Jail Visitors Center the Nauvoo Brass Band played a concert each Sunday afternoon. |

This is the "core" cast of professional actors and actresses of the Nauvoo and British pageants performing for us prior to the start of the pageants in a program called "The Story Goes On..." They were so talented! It was a great program. |
