ROADTRIP--11th Stop Carthage, IL

After spending the night in Kirksville, Missouri, we brought the family to Historic Carthage Jail.
This is the 2nd time we brought the family here.

Joseph and Hyrum Smith were martyred here at the jail.

Waiting for the tour.


On the tour.

The stairs leading up to the room.

Aleya reminded everyone how to be reverent.


Joseph Smith and his brother, Hyrum, spent their final hours in this room. Joseph was shot and fell from this window.

Joseph Smith fell from the top window.

This stone is from the original Nauvoo Temple.
