And finally we come back, in the conven-
tional course, by way Of Salt Lake City.
Mr.. Thomas Gregg, who published the
second newspaper printed West of the
Mississippi, and who lived next door to
the Mormon movement in Illinois, has his
opinion of that whole business, and has no
hesitation in expressing it. That "long-
legged, tow-headed boy who spent most Of
his time fishing in the mill pond at Durtee's
grist mill, on Mud creek" and was known
among the neighbors as Joe Smith, was an
idle fellow from the start, Mr.. Gregg says.
Everybody in Palmyra knew Joe Smith.
and when he took to digging for hidden
treasure in the hills about the town nobody
was surprised. That was like Smith. He
was always wanting to get rich without earn
ing any money. Then when he declared
that he had seen an angel, and that the angel
had showed him certain gold plates, leach
plate six inches wide and eight inches long,
and not quite so thick as common tin filled
with engravings in Egyptian characters,
and bound together in a volume as the leaves
of a book, with three rings running through
the whole"-when Joe Smith was now grown
to manhood, six feet high, long-legged and
with big ieet, his hair turned from tow color
to light auburn, with large eyes of blush
gray, prominent nose and queer mouth
when this PALMYRA idler revealed this mar
velous vision, nobody paid attention to him.
It was just Joe Smith.
Nevertheless Joe Smith became the
'Prophet of Palmyra" and founded re-
ligion which is one of the annoyments and
anomalies Of the present century.
1t seems that Pittsburg had some share in
that extraordinary achievement. A good
man, a minister in the Presbyterian Church,
named Solomon Spalding, came here to live
about the year 1914. Spalding had written
a singular story called the 1.-THE Manuscript
Found''-the manuscript of which, contra
dieting its title, has now these many years
been totally lost. This wild romance, writ
ten in Biblical language and describing pre-
historic happenings in this country, appears
to have been the basis of the "Book of Nor
mon." The inventor Of mormon" was this
good Mr.. Spalding, of Pittsburg. There
was then living in this city, in charge of the
First Baptist Church, the Rev. Sidney Rig
don, with whom Mr.. Spalding formed ac-
quaintance, and in whose hands he placed
the written sheets of his queer story, hoping
that it might find publisher. The Rev.
Sidney Rigdon, Baptist minister of Pitts
burg, knew Joseph Smith. And he fixed
up the manuscript romance, SO Mr.. Gregg
says, at Smiths request, in the shape in
which it stands to-day in the Book OF Nor
mon."
The ''Book of Mormon" then, was writ
ten here in Pittsburg-a bit OF history which
will perhaps be as new to many Pittsburg-
ers as it is to The CRITIC.

I'm 1880 we moved to Haysville, about II
miles out cf Pittsburg, where my home has
been ever since. Forty years of my life was
spent on the river packets both as captain and
engineer. l travelled all the river waters from
Pittsburg to st. Louis and New Orleans to st.
Paul. 1t is because of trouble brought on
during that time from exposure to the fogs and
damp, heavy weather in the swamps that
brings me to cite this short history.
ut was at first like a cold. But soon my
head and nose were stopped on one side or the
other all the time. At times very severe head
aches in the back of NV head and around my
left ear. A constant buZzing roaring noise
There was continual dropping of matter back
into my throat that kept me hawking and rails
ing to clear it, and would often almost choke
me.
"a dry, hacking cough set in sharp, shooting
pains would take me in the chest and region
of the heart. My appetite became affected.
What ate caused me a distress and nausea at
the stomach. My sleep was restless and broken:
l would arise in the morning even more tired
than the night before. l continued in this con-
dition for years, unable to find relief. 1 had
made up my mind almost that was past being
cured. But after reading so much of Drs.
Copeland and Blair and their very notable sue
cess decided to try once more.
~ shall always be thankful made that reso-
luton" concludes Mr.. Anderson, 'for these
eminent specialists have cured me and at so
little expense. Their charges are simply
nominal, even
LOWER THAN PATENT MEDICINES.
II am a well man-as well as any one could
long years, and will gladly verify this state
ment to anyone. Drs. Copeland and Blair are
the only people to treat such troubles and be
positive of the result"

ut is probable there are few still living

the year 1925.
"In that year my father and his family first
