together. It had not been a desiiable situation to be away from those in Cedar City. When he returned to Pinedaie he got in touch at once with Henry W. to make the necessary preparations to begin the move of those family members in Cedar City who would be able to leave. Henry W. was Henry's oldest son who had assumed the management n of the family affairs i Cedar City during his absence.
