115 years ago today - Dec 15, 1899

[Benjamin Cluff, BYA (BYU) President] Last Friday [i.e., December 15, 1899] we held a special fast day in behalf of the school [i.e., Brigham Young Academy]. .... talked to them about a proposed scientific tour or expedition through Mexico, Cenetral America and South America. They were much interested and wanted me to bring the matter up before Pres[iden]t. [Lorenzo] Snow.
