NisEnglish clergyman, who left Eng
"a TO join the Mormons, returned L
Ondon in September last. He has jus
sblished volume, giving his opinion

f&reat Salt Lake. We quote
lone Of the most repulsive features o.

N is SO destructive of every good and hon.

Twill endevor TO explainit briefly. When
married man is called by conference
to foreign mission, he has the privilege
as they call it, before leaving home, of
choosing some one to take the oversight
of his cattle, goods, and whatever he may
possess; to provide for and overlook the
family, and TO become the prolempore
H>fhusband of the wife,"
The ostensible reason for this arrange
ment is TO prevent the husband from
suffering any loss" during his absence
on missionary labors, since the greatness
Of his "luture kingdom" depends upon
the number Of children he has here. 10
carry out this idea. the wife is handed
over to deputy husband, who maintains
his position in the family till the husband
/ returns. Base and immoral as this the
ory may be, i. is strongly advocated by
the leading men at the Great Salt Lake.
We again quote the returned clergyman:
