Mention of Eph Hanks in a discourse by Heber C. Kimball
26 September 2004 23:45

Sherry Smith sent me a copy of a talk given by Heber C. Kimball on 4 December, 1856. The event was the funeral of President Jedediah M. Grant. As this was shortly after the rescue of the handcart companies, President Kimball mentions the efforts of Eph Hanks and a few others who helped in the rescue.

You can find the talk in the Journal of Discourses Volume 4, page 135. But as I would assume most folks don't have the JD lying around on their shelves, the talk is given in its entirety in the link above. I've also placed a link to it from the Ephraim Hanks page. Eph is mentioned in paragraphs 22 and 23.
