115 years ago today - Feb 13, 1899

[Apostle Heber J. Grant Diary] I explained to Pres[iden]t Snow that I felt very deeply wounded at the sermon which Pres[ident] Cannon had preached Sunday in view of the Attack of his son [on Grant] in his speech last Thursday evening. I told him I felt I could not feel well to be obligated to him for the present made me a little over a month ago. The President agree with me that I would feel better if refunded the amount. I wrote a note to Bro[ther] Cannon and enclosed my check for $1500 The letter read as follows (not there) I told Pres[iden]t Snow of my intention to return the 1500 to Bro[ther] Cannon and said he could not blame me for the desire to do so. I am glad he felt this way.
