[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] We visited the Temple. It was Beautiful. The outside was Painted with sumthing like the Cream Color. It took 15,000 lbs of white Lead to paint it & the Material Cost $2,000. The font was in its place. We decided upon the Plan of the Stands. The Cornish of the main upper room Spans 10 feet.
