Missionary Gale Stanley Critchfield, age twenty, is stabbed to death in Dublin by an eighteen-year-old Irishman who follows the missionaries to their apartment for the sole purpose of the attack. "We wonder why, when a young man is called to serve the Lord, he isn't watched over so closely [that] his life is protected," says First Presidency counselor Gordon B. Hinckley at the funeral. "We don't know why some things happen."
