It's like the city
in the Bible.

You don't pay attention in

maybe we'd be neighbors.

I'm gonna weave 'em

as an Indian basket,

day by day.
357
00:18:10,698 --> 00:18:12,787
I believe
you really want to stay.
358
00:18:12,830 --> 00:18:16,138
[ grunts ]
I have no choice.
359
00:18:18,009 --> 00:18:19,881
Well, I guess I'll go to bed.
360
00:18:19,924 --> 00:18:21,578
It gets to be morning
before you know it.
361
00:18:21,622 --> 00:18:23,841
David, suppose--
362
00:18:23,885 --> 00:18:27,628
suppose you had to choose
between this life here and me.
363
00:18:27,671 --> 00:18:29,804
[ chuckles ]
364
00:18:29,847 --> 00:18:31,371
Well, that's something,
365
00:18:31,414 --> 00:18:33,634
fortunately,
I don't have to worry about.
366
00:18:33,677 --> 00:18:36,550
I'm here, I have you,
367
00:18:36,593 --> 00:18:38,552
and I'm happy.
368
00:19:05,013 --> 00:19:07,146
I think I'll go out
for a breath of fresh air.
369
00:19:26,208 --> 00:19:28,167
Willie!
370
00:19:29,690 --> 00:19:31,605
Well, I'm off.
371
00:19:31,648 --> 00:19:32,867
Got your noon meal?
372
00:19:32,910 --> 00:19:34,347
Got it right here.
373
00:19:34,390 --> 00:19:35,478
Well, I'll see you
this evening, honey.
374
00:19:37,001 --> 00:19:38,264
Bye.
375
00:20:19,696 --> 00:20:21,176
What you doing,
Willie?
376
00:20:21,220 --> 00:20:22,699
Sister Sarah.
377
00:20:22,743 --> 00:20:24,005
You're packin'.
378
00:20:24,048 --> 00:20:26,268
Oh-- I was just getting
some things in order.
379
00:20:26,312 --> 00:20:28,009
Where are you going?
You can't fool me.
380
00:20:28,052 --> 00:20:29,315
You're going somewhere.
381
00:20:31,055 --> 00:20:32,187
Yes I am.
382
00:20:32,231 --> 00:20:33,884
I'm going back
to Salt Lake City.
383
00:20:33,928 --> 00:20:35,712
You and David,
and the baby?
384
00:20:35,756 --> 00:20:36,931
Just me and the baby.
385
00:20:36,974 --> 00:20:38,019
What for?
386
00:20:38,062 --> 00:20:39,150
For good.
387
00:20:39,194 --> 00:20:40,674
Willie--
It's all arranged.
388
00:20:40,717 --> 00:20:42,328
I've talked with Nephi
last night.
389
00:20:42,371 --> 00:20:44,373
He's picking us up
in the wagon in a few minutes.
390
00:20:44,417 --> 00:20:45,679
Are you crazy?
391
00:20:45,722 --> 00:20:47,594
I've stood this place
as long as I can, Sarah.
392
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,205
You unpack that trunk.
393
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:51,641
I will not!
I'm leaving.
394
00:20:51,685 --> 00:20:52,642
You can't.
395
00:20:52,686 --> 00:20:53,904
Oh yes, I can,
396
00:20:53,948 --> 00:20:55,689
and nobody's going to stop me.
397
00:20:55,732 --> 00:20:57,168
I'll tell Apostle Snow.
398
00:20:57,212 --> 00:20:58,561
I'll tell the heads
of the church!
399
00:20:58,605 --> 00:21:00,433
Tell anyone you want.
I'm going.
400
00:21:00,476 --> 00:21:01,434
I'm going, Sarah.
401
00:21:01,477 --> 00:21:02,739
Do you hear me?
I'm going!
402
00:21:02,783 --> 00:21:04,567
You little fool!
403
00:21:04,611 --> 00:21:07,266
Don't you know
if you commit a sin like that,
you'll be punished?
404
00:21:07,309 --> 00:21:10,443
There couldn't be a worse
punishment than living here.
405
00:21:10,486 --> 00:21:12,836
Maybe you think
the rest of us find it easy.
406
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,579
Maybe you think we like hunger
and hardships and loneliness.
407
00:21:16,623 --> 00:21:18,277
Well, let me tell you--
I don't want to hear!
408
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,281
[ baby crying ]
409
00:21:30,506 --> 00:21:31,464
Let me by.
410
00:21:35,555 --> 00:21:37,208
I warn you,
Sarah Whipple,
411
00:21:37,252 --> 00:21:38,906
If you don't step aside,
I'll--
412
00:21:40,211 --> 00:21:43,127
[ cocks gun ]
413
00:21:43,171 --> 00:21:44,781
MAN:
Sister Wilhelmina,
414
00:21:44,825 --> 00:21:46,392
there's been an accident.
415
00:21:46,435 --> 00:21:48,002
David's hurt.
416
00:21:50,961 --> 00:21:52,267
Nice and easy.
417
00:21:53,964 --> 00:21:55,444
Oh, David.
418
00:21:55,488 --> 00:21:56,967
How did it happen?
419
00:21:57,011 --> 00:21:59,448
He fell off a canyon wall
and broke his leg.
420
00:21:59,492 --> 00:22:02,321
He ain't come to yet.
421
00:22:02,364 --> 00:22:03,539
We'll go fetch
brother Kimball.
422
00:22:03,583 --> 00:22:05,498
He'll fix that leg up
good as new.
423
00:22:19,250 --> 00:22:21,209
Here, let me do that.
424
00:22:33,090 --> 00:22:34,396
Willie...
425
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:36,093
David.
426
00:22:36,137 --> 00:22:38,748
They said you fell
from a canyon wall.
427
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,752
I was after some flowers.
428
00:22:47,888 --> 00:22:48,976
These?
429
00:22:49,019 --> 00:22:51,108
I didn't know
I still had them.
430
00:22:51,152 --> 00:22:53,372
They're Sego Lilies.
431
00:22:54,895 --> 00:22:57,245
Later on, the hills around here
will be covered with them,
432
00:22:57,288 --> 00:22:58,681
they tell me...
433
00:23:00,074 --> 00:23:03,469
like the stars in the sky,
434
00:23:03,512 --> 00:23:07,211
but I didn't want to wait
a week, or even a day,
435
00:23:07,255 --> 00:23:09,083
when it meant so much.
436
00:23:09,126 --> 00:23:12,826
You risked your life to--
to--
437
00:23:12,869 --> 00:23:15,306
Ever since you told me
how you felt about this country
438
00:23:15,350 --> 00:23:19,267
I've--
I've been trying to find
something I could show you
439
00:23:19,310 --> 00:23:21,138
that was beautiful about it.
440
00:23:21,182 --> 00:23:23,576
WILHELMINA:
Oh, David...
441
00:23:23,619 --> 00:23:25,795
I'm afraid they got
a little bit smashed
442
00:23:25,839 --> 00:23:27,188
when I fell...
443
00:23:29,103 --> 00:23:31,845
but they are pretty,
aren't they?
444
00:23:31,888 --> 00:23:35,326
They're the loveliest things
I've ever seen.
445
00:23:35,370 --> 00:23:38,155
WILHELMINA:
Like-- like fairy bells,
446
00:23:38,199 --> 00:23:40,636
butterflies.
447
00:23:45,511 --> 00:23:48,644
[ sighs ]
Oh, David, David...
448
00:23:48,688 --> 00:23:51,212
how blind I've been.
449
00:23:51,255 --> 00:23:53,997
Any place where a woman
finds love like yours
450
00:23:54,041 --> 00:23:55,434
is beautiful anyway.
451
00:23:59,046 --> 00:24:01,396
NEPHI:
Sister Wilhelmina...
452
00:24:05,879 --> 00:24:07,315

NEPHI:
Sister Wilhelmina!
454
00:24:18,021 --> 00:24:20,633
We won't be needing you,
brother Nephi.
Get along.
455
00:24:20,676 --> 00:24:22,852
All right. Giddy up.

NARRATOR:
David and Wilhelmina Cannon
457
00:24:44,352 --> 00:24:46,876
have long since passed
from this earth,
458
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:48,791
but the Sego Lilies,
459
00:24:48,835 --> 00:24:51,315
now the official state flower
of Utah,
460
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,623
still bloom each spring
in all their glory
461
00:24:54,667 --> 00:24:57,496
on the red hills
around St. George,
462
00:24:57,539 --> 00:25:00,499
and in the town,
you will still find some folks
463
00:25:00,542 --> 00:25:03,023
who knew and loved
Wilhelmina,
464
00:25:03,066 --> 00:25:05,808
and they remember her
as a smiling lady
465
00:25:05,852 --> 00:25:08,681
who always praised the beauty
of the land that she knew.
