T o a strong body, he joined couragr, indifference to suffering, and dogged industry, when work had to be done. For these qualities, it would be difficult to find his equal. Lehi Jones was his own overseer and no higher-type eniployer ever existed, or one more dependable. His life exemplifies cooperative hard work and organization.
