View looking east. 1. The Monument. The camara is placed on top of the small basalt hill from which, at close range, seven were killed on the first fire, Tuesday at Dawn. The emigrants were camped this side of the present monument. The spring is very close to and beyond a few feet from the monument. 2. On a side hill Nephi Johnson watched the slaughter. 3. The present road runs behind this hill. 4. Close by some such clump of oak brush the Indian boy Albert sat, eyes riveted on the scene. The Dunlap sisters ran to him , and were directed to seek refuge in the close by thicket. (This exact location is assumed.);
