Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Mormon Menace The history of Mormonism is one of the blackest chapters in the chronicles of the country. In 1853 a Mormon mob unseated United States District Court Judge W. W. Drummond. In 1857 the Nauvoo Mormon Legion, after promising protection, massacred thirty Arkansas families. In 1857 Brigham Young, who had twenty-six wives, defied the United States troops to enter Salt Lake City. The same year the Mormons, under Lot Smith, destroyed three supply trains for the army. In 1862 an act of Congress provided for the prevention and punishment of polygamy. This was defied, and in 1870 a mass meeting of Mormons was held to protest against interference with I polygamy. In 1871 Brigham Young, ordered to be tried for polygamy, escaped. Hawkins, an "elder," was sentenced for adultery. In 1878 Brigham was again indicted for polygamy, and adjudged to support a wife who was suing for divorce, refused and was imprisoned in his house. In 1890, after nearly fifty years of anarchy, uncleanness, treason and rebellion, the Mormons renounced polygamy.
