ALFRED FISK STOUT 
1851-1925 
A great frontiersman, empire builder.]

Alfred was a fine product of Mormonism. Born in times of adversity, Alfred's life illustrates how character is purified by adversities. He was a farmer, lumberman and expert frontiersman. He could be called "Utah's Daniel Boone." He died as he had lived, a genuine Mormon, who knew how to live his religion. The end came November 20, 1925, in Hurricane; he was buried in Rockville.
