Summary
| Description |
English: Political cartoon from Harper's weekly, May 1858, depicting women attending soldiers. The caption reads: "Frightful scene of carnage and desolation at the sack of Salt Lake City by the United States troops."
This presumably depicts Mormon women socializing with carousing federal soldiers, while the Mormon men sit disconsolately on the floor at left. The caption is sarcastic. |
