reported the matter to Marshal Ireland, who told
him to go on and see what it meant. Franks then

planned that what was wanted was that Franks
should inform him when any process of court
came to the United States marshal for the arrest
of any Mormons For this service Franks would
receive $l00 per month. Franks said he wanted
a more responsible man to deal with, and an
other appointment was made for Thursday night

themselves where they heard and saw all that
ensued. The responsible party" appeared in
