DonBradley Posted July 10, 2009 Posted July 10, 2009 Am I the only one here who hadn't previously seen the Brigham Young birthplace marker, erected by Vermont locals in the early 1900s?The BYU Religious Studies Archive has a photo of it.And this pilgrim's photo is even clearer.I'm not sure why the background differs between the two photos, perhaps because the monument was stolen in 1999, and may have been reinstalled at a different site than originally. In either case, it is quite real. Don

Scott Lloyd Posted July 13, 2009 Posted July 13, 2009 Attempt at junior high school humor.....Fail!BernardMy Webster's New World College Dictionary defines equipment (sense 4) as "one's abilities, knowledge, etc." I tend to think this was what was intended with the marker inscription.
