Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Lady´s Life Among the Mormons: A Record of Personal Experience, as One of the Wives of a Mormon Elder, During a Period of More Than Twenty Years In presenting this little volume to the public, I trust I may be excused if I give utterance to a few words by way of preface. This I think especially needful, as very probably what I have written will fall into the hands of many who are but imperfectly acquainted with Mormon doctrines and Mormon practice, and who would thus he at a loss to understand much of my story. It is only right that I should explain, among other things - what may appear strange to the reader - that is, the poverty and privations which we endured for so many years. It must be fully understood that this poverty was entirely voluntary. My husband and myself were both zealously devoted to the faith, and when called to missionary labour, we obeyed. We were not only willing to sacrifice cheerfully all the pleasures and comforts of life for the sake of our religion, but we did so, and rejoiced that we were counted worthy to suffer. Again, I must here state that, although I am necessarily compelled to speak of many circumstances of a personal nature, I have studiously avoided all mention of names or details which might reasonably give the least pain to any of my former friends and acquaintances. Even in the case of Brigham Young and his family, with whom I have been on terms of the most intimate acquaintance, although I felt myself at liberty to speak more freely of him as a public man, I have in no instance betrayed the confidence which any of his wives or members of his household have placed in me. This statement I am assured they will willingly confirm. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
