Religious leader (1801–1877) who became leader of the Mormon Church in 1844 after its founder, Joseph Smith, was shot and killed by a mob of angry opponents. A charismatic and powerful leader, Young led the mass migration of Mormons to the Great Salt Lake Valley in Utah, establishing the church’s stronghold in that state. By the time of Young’s death, the Mormon population in Utah had reached 140,000, and the leader’s own legacy included 27 wives and 56 children. Ink signature, “Brigham Young,” on an off-white 4 x .75 lightly-lined slip. Scattered light toning and soiling, approaching, but not affecting signature, and a small notation to left edge, otherwise fine condition.
