Show Details Note: "In July, 1877 President Brigham Young in a conference or special meeting in Provo called for volunteers to go to Arizona to help settle that country and help strengthen the settlements that had already been started on the Little Colorado. As my intended wife's ‏(Josephine Cluff)‏ parents, Moses and Rebecca Langman Cluff, were among the volunteers, I joined with my parents consent.

"We left Provo on the 18th of October 1877, and as all expected to go to St. George from Johnson ‏[east of present-day Kanab]‏ to work in the Temple, we decided to get married and get our endowments. My grandmother, Jane Sanford Mills, and her son,Uncle Martin W. Mills, went with me as far as Johnson,, then they went on to St. George; but on account of it being late in the season and the stock getting thin, the company concluded to push on and not go to St. George as was contemplated. As that throwed me alone, I decided to get marred so I would not be alone; so on the 23rd of November 1877 we were married by Bishop Sextus ‏[Sixtus]‏ Johnson. The next day ‏(24th)‏ we started on." ‏(quoted in George Martin Haws Family History. 1975.)‏
