Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mormons and the Silver Mines An apology may seem to be required for writing upon so hackneyed a subject as "The Mormons." But, as in this moving age even that conservative people have varied in opinion, a record of such change and of its cause was at least desirable. White the writer saw, in his brief visit to Salt Lake, no reason to think that the religious system of Mormonism was losing its power, he could not fail to observe the inherent weakness, and tendency to destruction, of the practice of Polygamy. In this day of religious inquiry, when the foundations of creeds are being so severely tested, a brief sketch of Mormon belief, from an authorized text-book, may not be unwelcome to some.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kawich's Gold Mine: An Historical Narrative of Mining in the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and of Love and Adventure Among the Polygamous Mormons of Southern Utah During January, 1905, at the time when the Nevada gold boom was at its zenith, I was commissioned by certain Omaha men to investigate investment conditions in the sagebrush state and report for further instructions. At the ending of that strenuous search for bonanza, real and prospective, during which a thousand Wildcats, held at a million dollars per wildcat, to each bonanza were examined, that by the merest accident I listened to one of the most startling narratives of placer mining in the Grand Canyon of the Colorado; of love and adventure among the Mormon fanatics of southern Utah, and the weird ending of a series of the most thrilling incidents ever told by one who would vouch for their truth. Disgusted with the chase through northern, central and south western Nevada where, always at distant points, bonanzas were as plentiful as sagebrush, I decided to hamain a few days at Las Vegas, on the Salt Lake, Los Angeles and San Pedro railroad, and rest in the never-failing sunshine of that locality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mormon Trials at Salt Lake City The morning after my arrival I found everybody going up to see Brigham Young, some accompanied by an introducer, others falling in as interlopers. My chaperon was a bright young Mormon editor, as rosy as the sun On the mountains, who conducts a live salt newspaper, possesses a singular fam ily, in that it is limited, and has built the first house with a Mansard roof in the heart of the continent. If he should feel distressed at any of these comments upon the Saints, my ingratitude will be great, and his paper will score me.

Download or read book The Truth About the Mormons written by C. Sheridan Jones and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Truth About the Mormons: Secrets of Salt Lake City This is a book which everyone should read who cares for the well-being of the world. From the standpoint of ordinary law and order Utah is well governed; but Mr. Sheridan Jones with good authority shows how the fundamental moral domestic law is secretly and callously violated. Nothing too strong could be said against this gross abuse of the modern attitude towards marriage. Divorce is all too common in the United States and too easily got, but the world over Christianity limits the marriage of a man to one woman only. The people of the great American Republic are essentially Christian and moral in mind, and they have always resented and opposed Mormonism since the day when Joseph Smith foisted his bogus message on the people of the West.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mormon Saints The History of the Mormons contains many strikingly interesting features; and speculation as to the probable future of the Church in the United States is being freely indulged in by those who have watched the actions of the unbelievers in regard to the Latter Day Saints. The Supreme Court has recently decided that the dissolution of the Church under the Edmund's law was constitutional; so that as a corporate body it has ceased to exist, and its property is to be administered by Federal officials. Those who continue to practise plural marriage are being rigorously imprisoned, and the latest 'revelation' has caused the abandonment of the teaching of polygamy. The Gentiles are out-numbering and out-voting the Mormon dwellers in Salt Lake City.Will the repressive legislation and the influx of Gentiles, weaken the hold of the faith upon the minds of the present followers of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young; and prevent the accession of youthful converts to the Church? What are the characteristics of the Mormons? Are they misguided fanatics or vicious people? How should they be treated by those people whose views are antagonistic? Is polygamy still secretly practised? Is the faith a rational one, or based on superstition? What lessons may be drawn from this history of bloodshed and persecution, and the struggle to found a settlement in a strange land?

Download or read book The Story of the Book of Mormon Classic Reprint written by George Reynolds and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Book of Mormon HE story that we are about to relate is a true one. It is the history of the races who lived on this broad land of ours long, long ago. From it we shall learn many lessons of God's great love for man. We shall also learn how often his love has been spurned, how apt his favored children have been to walk in ways of sin, and how prone to disobey his holy law.' It is a story full of light and shade, one which it will be well for all of us to take to heart, for by so doing our faith in God will increase, and we shall be prompted to strive the more earnestly to avoid the evils that others by their misdeeds have brought upon themselves and their posterity. America, the land we love, is, in our Heavenly Father's eyes, choice above all other lands as the home of his sons and daughters, whom he has placed upon this earth. For all God's creatures are not here. He has made many worlds and filled them with his chil dren. How many we know not; they are countless to us. The stars, that shine in myriads in the heavens, are nearly all suns like the one that gives us light; the remaining few are worlds like unto this on which we dwell; and ours is one of the very smallest of them all. To the works of God there is no beginning, neither is there any end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Early Days on Grand River and the Mormon War Classic Reprint written by Rollin J. Britton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Days on Grand River and the Mormon War The white man first entered that part of the Grand River Country in Missouri now known as Daviess county in 1830. The only semblance to towns that he found therein were certain Indian camps, the last one of which passed away in 1834, when the Indians allowed the embers to die out in the great camp fire at the head of Auberry Grove, north of the site of the present town of Jamesport. In the autumn of 1831 Robert P. Peniston, Sr., moved his family and slaves, among the latter being Jacob and Henry Peniston, from Kentucky to Missouri; the family remained in lower Ray county that winter, while William P. Peniston, the eldest son, accompanied by the two slaves, Jacob and Henry, and the wife of Henry, pushed on to the Grand River Country and camped on Splawn's Ridge, where they builded cabins for the family that came on in the spring of 1832, bringing Theodore Peniston, as well, with them. The Black Hawk war was then in progress, and at its close in 1832 many of those who had been ranging the country as soldiers, were so well pleased with the Grand River Country that they concluded to settle in what is now Daviess county.
