Briant Stringham - Stockman Briant Stringham, son of George and Polly Hendricksen was born March 28, 1823 at Coalville, Broome county, New York. The following beautiful letter was written by him to his family whom he had left in Winter Quarters when he was chosen to accompany the pioneer vanguard to Utah: Separated as we are by mountains, rivers, hills, deserts of sand, and many wandering tribes of Indians, yet my thoughts reach you by day and my dreams by night, and my prayer is that you may be blessed and prospered and enjoy life and health and that you may be able to come to this land the ensuing year and rejoice with the people of God in this beautiful valley, for it is truly a lovely place, and I believe the garden spot of the world. I still live with Brother Lorenzo Young and expect to until you come. I am working and preparing timber for your house, and hope, by the time you get here, to have it ready for you. I am in hopes of raising an abundance of grain for you; at least I have as fair prospects as anyone. I shall try my best. At the same time I want you to do something for me, for by the time you get here I shall be literally naked, and bareheaded, without shoes or clothing. I hope therefore you will do all in your power whilst I am doing for you. If Jerry is there tell him to bring me a good wife, if he can. If Jed has any horses have him not fetch them, but trade them for steers and heifers, for they are the best team you can have to come with, and when you get here you can get horses cheap enough. I want you to bring a good harness and iron for a plough or two for such things cannot be got here at any price. Bring all the cattle you can and two pigs if possible, sugar, guns, cloth, eather, nails, glass, spices and such things for they cannot be got here. I hope to see you all in the Valley about the last of July. The thought of seeing my brothers, sisters, and friends, together with my aged father and dear mother, to think of you all settled in your inheritance in this goodly land, fills my soul with joy that I cannot express with a pen. May that happy day soon arrive when we shall see each other's smiles and rejoice together with none to molest or make afraid. We can build here and inhabit, plant vineyards and eat the fruit thereof, live and enjoy health and strength and be blessed together with the servants of God to teach us the ways and rules, wisdom and power of the Almighty; that we may walk in his paths and enjoy his blessings throughout the remaining days of our lives and our days be lengthened out to a good old age, that we may do much good all the days of our lives and prove ourselves wise stewards in the days of our probation; that we may come to the grave in peace, having fought the good fight so that in the morning of the resurrection, we can claim the promises that are promised to the faithful, willing and obedient servants of God. I want you to start as early as possible and come in Brigham's company if you can and then you will be pretty apt to be safe, and I will try and meet you somewhere this side of Fort Bridger in the mountains. I cannot come a great way for I have to take care of my crops. You must fetch provisions enough to last you until you get here. It will take about one hundred and fifty pounds of flour to each one of you and meat enough to go with it. Try to get a small piece of a porker for me. It would taste excellent. May the Lord bless you in all your undertakings that are lawful to get you to this place which is the desire and prayer of your son. After Briant Stringham's arrival in the valley he helped to plant trees, build houses and otherwise develop the small community. For fifteen years he had charge of the tithing stock of the Latter-day Saint Church, a great part of the time on Antelope Island. He died in Salt Lake City August 4, 1871 at the age of forty eight years. At the funeral it was suggested that Brigham Young be the speaker. With tears running down his cheeks he said he could not do it for Briant was far too near and dear to him to be able to say anything. SOURCE: 1.
