served God to the best OF their under
standing, and Gods plan OF redemption
would reach them.
Elder Penrose took up the subject OF
the restoration through the Prophet
Joseph smith, and bore fcrvent testi-
mony that the Latter-day Saints were
engaged In the work of God. Evidence
OF their faith and zeal could be seen
throughout these mountain wales, the
people who inhabited this section hav-
ing come here through having received
testimony Of the divinity OF that
which was termed "Mormonism."
The speaker said many people were
wont to associate "Mormonism" with
polygamy, thinking they were synony-
nous. This was because they were
unacquainted with the subject The
Latter-day Saints were not teaching
polygamy. The fact was II was being
taught most by those opposed TO the
"Mormons," for they were publishing
Bibles md sending them to the four
quarters Of the earth. III you want TO
Know anything about polygamy," said
the speaker, read the Bible" The
"Mormons' are neither preaching II
nor entering into It, Those Of them
who married plural wives are taking
care OF them and their families, which
- ~ NhNi hbtt w wv tiu ~ tiltlt tic-
niles do not like II they will have to
do the other thing The speaker ex-
pressed the fear that some good peo-
pie would not be willing to go through
the pearly gates OF the New Jerusalem,
depicted In the Revelation OF st. John,
because the names of the twelve sons
OF Jacob by his four wives were on
those gates; and that when the Savior's
prophecy was fulfilled namely, MANY
shall come from the east and the west,
the north and the south. and shall set
down with Abraham and Isaac and ia
cob In the Kingdom of God; while the
children OF the Kingdom shall be thrust
out" some Of our kind friends would
hesitate to enter, for fear that the
wives Of the Patriarch would be with
him. This, the speaker, explained, he
mentioned by way OF pleasantly and
stated further that when the man who
held the keys of authority In the
Church, declared that plural marriages
sould cease, they were prohibited and
stopped.
"Mormonism, then, he explained
was the pure Gospel of Christ AS taught
by the SAVIOR In Palestine and on this
continent after his resurrection. The
of the prophets on this land
were abridged by Mormon" whose
DOCK or helroglyphs on metallic
plates was translated into English by
Joseph Smith. 1t does not teach poly
gamy as Its doctrines were given 20
people who were forbidden to practise
IT, The speaker bore testimony tc the
divine mission OF the Prophet Joseph
Smith, the truth Of that which is call
ed "Mormonsm" and the faith, devo-
ton and union of the people who peo-
pied these mountain valleys having
come here to serve God and build up
Zion"
