and addresses, well suited TO the occa-
sion, were made by such veterans In
the Relief Society work as Sisters

The morning meeting was devoted
to remarks by the presidents of the
different associations throughout the
stake, all OF whom expressed sorrow at
parting, occasioned by the impending
division, and paid tribute 10 the untir-
ing efforts OF President Horne and as
sociates In advancing the interests OF
the society In this stake, The express
sions made were full OF love and SYM
patty and the hope was INDUCED that
Sister Horne would still be able to lend
her influence to the betterment OF the

At the afternoon meeting a greeting
from President Horne was read by Sis

was characteristic OF its author and
urged the sisters to go on in the good

II would be said at home that his case
was worse than II was, and he would
rather go alone. He seemed so much
better at times, even laughed at his
own imaginatlons. We all finally de-
cided II was best TO let him so, and
we went to the depot and saw him off
In fairly good spirits, He had his lunch
put up, enough to last him home, and
was satisfied he had no weapon with
him when he left. lie must have got
the pistol In ST. Louis and used II at a
time when his reason had left him.
He was a good faithful worker in the
mission, beloved by all and was often
pointed out by the Elders at the mis-
sion headquarters as one OF the very
best conference presidents we had in
the mission. He worked so hard and
became SO worked UP In his religious
thoughts that he imagined his foolish
boy-hood faults were greater than they
We're, he allowed these things to worry
him until he weakened his mind, and
feel certain he was not responsible
for what he did.
There is not q blemlsh upon his mis-
sionary record IN his field Of labor and
in every way was he entitled to the
honorable release gave him at the
time Of leaving us. ! want YOU to know
this and want your children to know
II. | also want Lorenzo's Bishop and
the presidency Of his stake to know It.
also desire the people OF your
ward to be Informed as to his good
faithful labors in the mission and TO
know that no young man coming on a
mission has ever worked harder or lly-
ed purer life than he did while he
was working as a missionary, In re-
porting this case to the presidency OF
the Church this Is how | will report It.
May the memory Of these good words
OF praise given him, because he de-
served them, coupled with the fact
that he was not responsible, bring you
n little comfort. Not only yourself
but also his mother II she Is living,
also his father and all OF his loved ones.
May God comfort YOU with strength
to bear up In your hour Of deepest
sorrow. Your brother,

that he was absolutely without avail

Wilmer, knew that there was 81. 500 Oh

plea that he conceived the idea OF
burning down the building, which would

But II so happened that the alleged
fire.bug had not taken Wilmer into
his confidence regarding the cause OF
the burning of the house and when he
called on Wilmer with renewal OF the
proposition he found that VII.

number OF obligations, and wus practl-

which we did lie said he would pay
our money back, but he never did so.
Although he has made great promises
