I recently was at bookstore and picked up a book on old historic adobe Salt Lake houses. Imagine my feelings when I randomly opened the book at home this afternoon and found a chapter about a house that Sarah Pratt, the apostate wife of Orson Pratt, had lived in.
It reminded me of the time some twelve years ago when I was watching, on my old untrustworthy computer, a site critical of the LDS Church and the computer kept freezing up. 10 seconds- stop, 5 seconds- stop. this went on for maybe 10 stops. I said a little prayer, and then restarted the podcast, and it ran flawlessly through the next 30 minutes to the end of the program.
How can this be explained?

Other doubt sustaining miracles include that some of the biggest casualties of the Magna earthquake were Moroni dropping his trumpet and the historic home of a prominent Mormon polygamist - one of one of those adobe houses you're talking about. It was the second oldest surviving adobe structure in Utah (up to that date) and the only building demolished as result of the earthquake.

Here's a 3D drone model I made of it at the request of the Utah State Historic Preservation Office just before it was torn down due to earthquake damage. Not that this particularly relates to the topic, but I thought you'd enjoy it if you're interested enough in adobe houses to buy a book about them. It looks like brick, but that is only the exterior veneer:
