s
The despatch referred to contains
an account OF an assault made by AZ
mob OF 30 Nrornions on a Gentle
named Barclay, who had married u
Mormon girl against the advice Of the
Mormon elders Yielding to family
pressure. the wife returned to her own
people, and on Barclays attempting to
get possession Of his Wife, he was
fnobhed and severely injured.
And thus the item has gone to the
public as a Mormon outrage, though
no 1nember8ofl the Church was in any
way implicated. except as members Of
other churches MAY have been.

(the three) to come and take away;
her baby from her almost killed her;
she lay unconscious one whole day
and medical skill could not restore her.
The marriage relations have been any
thing but pleasant for this young girl;
and when her troubles were more than
she could live under she came to Ma
grath: he never asked her to go back
to Calgary, but instead asked to see
the baby and when he sew his way
