MORMON CONVERTS IN GEoRGIA-Oa Tuesday
z large party OF Mormon converts passet
through the Taxing district en- route for Sail
Lake City. A reporter OF the 4 ralaache was ar
the depot when the train arrived. There were
about $50 In the party, and they were saualid
In dress, ignorant looking and altogether the
reporter concluded that they were taken from
tie poorer and lower walks of life. The re-
porter had just obtained from young LADY In
the party that she was going to Utah '.after a
husband" when the leader came forward and
put an end to the conversation. He gave his
name as Elder j. Morgan, and explained TO the
reporter that converts were frequently dis.
suaded from going to their destination by Der.
sons talking to them, and that on this account
he had interdicted all conversation.
In reply to the question where the converts
came from, the elder replied: ssAbout so of
them came from East Tennessee and North
Georgia, ABOUT 80 Joined us at Decatur, Ala,
and an equal number at Corinth, Mss
to leave the state?
Elder Morgan.-The men go because it is the
religion OF the world, and 1t will finally prevail
The women go because they cannot get hus-
bands mere. Why, my dear sir, there are 80, o09
women In Georgia who are unmarried AS soon
as we get to Utah all win be married. There
we can worship according to the dictates of our
own Observation-Disclosures kua1anche, March rs
