1859 homecoming honored

Re-enactors gather Saturday at the Old Yell Lodge in Carrollton before a parade into town. Fifteen orphaned children 150 years ago spent their first night back in Carrollton at the lodge, which has since burned and been replaced by the current building.

Seventeen children survived the Mountain Meadows Massacre of 1857.
