Carthage Jail

The prophet Joseph Smith was martyred at this jail. I had been when I was a kid and had remembered the feeling of how badly the prophet had been hated and treated.

Most places that I visit as a kid then visit again as an adult seem so much smaller than I remembered. The jail was actually bigger than I had remembered. I must have had that cramped feeling back then that I still felt this time.

This is a picture with no flash of me and Martin in the dungon of the Jail.
This is outside the jail. The building in the back is the jail. This is Joseph, Hyrum, and Dylan holding the Book of Mormon.
