In the decades before Jeffs rose to power, the FLDS in Short Creek would have monthly church socials that included a dance. A pianist and sometimes a violinist would play the music.

"You showed up with your wives," Draper said. "They just kind of didn’t let you forget about it."

When the church social would fall on the same weekend as Valentine’s Day, it would be an extra, special event, Draper said. The bishop in those days, Fred Jessop, would announce certain dances were for couples or married people.

Draper said he and the other men with just one wife would watch which wife with whom the polygamist men were dancing.

"We’d kind of giggle who they were dancing with and who they weren’t dancing with," Draper said. "Sometimes it was pretty obvious who the favorite wife wasn’t."

Draper said sometimes Jessop would call for the schottische. But instead of two couples dancing it, a man with three of his wives would dance.

"It was a much simpler time," Draper said. "There was no indication at all Warren Jeffs would ever be a man of impact."
