Campbell's first name given as "John" in this brief account of his death

As copied from “Mary Eliza White and Warren Campbell and Family Members,” a summary of information taken from various sources, with the source of the below given as A History of North Ogden: Beginnings to 1985, pg 5-6.

The Campbells and Riddles had not been in North Ogden very long when trouble broke out with the Indians. The Indians in the area became hostile when Uban [sic] Van Stewart killed Terikee, chief of the Weber band of Indians, at Four Mile Creek in what is now Harrisville. John Campbell, the principal mechanic in the building of Lorin Farr’s mills, and a non-Mormon, was killed by a band of Ute Indians while on his way to gather cattle and warn the settlers in North Ogden of Indian trouble. Fear of the Indians caused Jonathan and Samuel Campbell to leave North Ogden and stay for a short time in Farr’s Fort in Ogden.
