Three days after Wilford Woodruff's death the "Twelve and Counselors . . . decided to hold the funeral services for President Woodruff on Thursday, Sep 8th, at 10:30 a. m. in the Tabernacle." The body was being kept in ice at Woodruff's home where the next three days "were occupied in endeavoring to make the face so it could be looked upon, yet without satisfactory results."
