RESCUED FROM MORMONEIpeRs


RALEIGH, y. c., Nov. 30.-A number of
Mormon disciples are now at work in the
mountains of western North Carolina, aud
making many converts, whom they are
sending to Utah. Four elders having
gained many converts, left Tuesday
night with a party from Rutherford
and Polk for Utah. They intensely
appreciate the beauty of woman, and
ofer premium on attractive
ness. They coveted Miss Charlotte Nc
Hurry, of Rutherford county, as convert,
and desired her TO accompany her parents
to Utah, but they found she was engaged
to a rustic lover. Her graceful figure and
finely moulded features form picture OF
physical perfection, and the Mormons de-
sired her and guarded her at night as a
precious prize for rich Mormon. Her
lover pleaded in vain for permits
sion to marry his betro.hed, but the
parents and Mormons refused twice
On the night previous 10 their departure
on the train the resolute lover collected a
group of young men, armed with shotguns,
charged the Mormons and captured his
imprisoned lady, whom be soon made his
bride. The angry father followed in vain
pursuit. and left next day for tab with
out his charming daughter. This affair
has deepened the indignation against the
Mormons, already so hearty IN North Car
elina.
