Thomas Lake Harrs's Brotherhood OF the New Life
community at Fountain Grove, Sonoma County, Cali

brotherhood as immoral principles as were those OF
the Oneida Community. She found in Harriss house
the library pictures and small belongings Of Laurence
Olphant and his wife, which they abandoned when
they suddenly left the community. She also holds
letters written by Laurence Oiphant from Haifa,
SYRIA which explains the cause Of his rupture with
Harris q cause which was not explained by Mrs. Mar
garet Ophant In her memoirs. Miss Chevaler de-
cares hat these letters show plainly that when Harris
approached the celestial amours OF the counterparts
a doctrine worse than Mormon poygamy, Olphants
ewes we're opened. In a letter which Olphant wrote
from Hafa In May 1855, lie says OF Harris
any earnest prayer is that Harris's eyes may be
opened that he may once more be restored TO that
moral sanity which might make him a useful man.
unfortunately. his main popularity is reckless disre
gard for the truth. / severed all connection
with him because among other things, had reason

OF his life selling for gold and his own private

the service Of humanity, thus converting him from
religious reformer into a religious impostor. when
became convinced that such was the case, seeded
at sacrifice OF several thousand pounds, and aban-
doned large portion OF my library clothing and other
property, of which he had taken possession
