g. B. Mattson, of Springville. Utah,
Is in the city. calling upon old friends,
amongst whom ie Cyrus stern, who Is
n second cousin. Mr.. Mattson was
born in Centreville, Christana hun
dfed, In 1928, and he Is a nephew of the
late Amos Pierson, of Willow Grove,
Chester county, Pa. With others he
left Wilmington In 1874 and went TO
Nauvoo, Hancock county, Illinois,
where he became member Of The
Mormon Church. WLel the Mormons
were driven from Nauvoo In lS4S, he
went with them to Salt Lake and was
one OF the first pioneers in opening up
Utah territory.
There he was with the Mormons
through all their prosperity and their
troubles. Mr.. Mattson, however,
unliko many other Mormons
never had but one wife and In his own
emphatic language he said: "And
have her yet, thank God and ten chill
drsn all born in lawful wedlock." MIR.
Mattson in strong terms eondemed
the doctrine OF plurality OF wives
aud said that IL was always abhorent
to the masses Of the Mormon Church.
A few corrupt le iders practiced it and
Aad brought I, proach on the church.
Mr.. Mattson nov lives at Sprlngvllle
hbtub DS llllltb lIOfl 1DulL IIukb. where
he has a fine productive farm OF 50
acres. Sprlngyille is a town OF some
800 inhabitants oil the line of two lead
ing railroads. ...
MIR. Mattson says that the Mormon
Church has entirely laid aside the
doctrine Of polygamy and Is now like
any other church or denomination. lie
Z does not deny, however, that the inter.
ference Of the government had much
to do with bringing this about. In re
sponse to a question of how IL was
politically amongst the Mormons, he
said they were like Presbyterlans Me
thiIdlsts and any other denomination,
about equally divided between the tive
great leading parties of the nation.
The church has been entirely elimi
S1ated from governmental affairs. vii
sred Woodruff Is now the president oI
the Mormon Church and he heard hin
tn a public address tell the people thai
the church had no claim upon theiI
Political opinions, and they were now
at liberty tuatteh themselves to what
ever party suited them best MIR
