The union service held at the Congrega
tional church last evening was largely at
tended, and the talk on Mormonism by
Miss Auman, field secretary of the
Woman's Home Missionary society of the
Congregational church, was listened to
with great interest. The subject is one
little understood in Vermont, but has been
made of special interest of late because of
the purchase Of the birthplace OF the
founder OF the Mormon church, Joseph
Smith, in Royalton, and the erection there
OF shrine. Miss Aurnan told of their be-
lief, their customs and their political and
financial power and urged the people to
study the matter, as 1t was one that should
deeply interest us as nation and thus as
individuals, and the movement should be
checked.
