concerning her marriage TO Elder Ben

So now We add the name of Elder

BISHOP BENNION'S CASE

Saturday mornings issue of this
paper contained local account Of the
misfortune that overlook Elder Heber
Bennion, in that he was caught in quar-
antine while visiting at one of his
homes in this city. And that recalls n
story of another sort
1t was between six and seven wears
ago that it leaked out. and at a quilt
ing bee held by the good women of the
relief society of the West Jordan ward
As is usual in all gatherings of the
ladies God bless 'cmD there was a
bit of gossiping. Among the subjects
brought forward was a rumor TO the
effect that Elder Bennion. who was
then a resident of TayIorsville, had re.
Gently taken unto himself a plural wife
BY some of the participants in the
quilting bee there was doubt expressed
as to the accuracy Of the report. But
that doubt was soon to be dispelled, for
one of the sisters prominent in the
ward said. 81 know it is true that
Brother Bennion has married Sister
Bringhurst in polyGamy, because Bishop
Blank told my husband so, -
Upon arriving home, one Of the sis.
ters of the sewing bee mentioned the
matter 10 her husband. and he warned
her 10 keep quiet concerning the mat.
ter, as doubtless the information was
given TO her to be held within her cir.
clo. He complained that the Mormon
people brought half their own trouble
upon themselves by talking so, and he
expressed the hope that she would say
no more to any one else about the Ben.
nion -Bringhurst case.
The facts are that Miss Bringhurst
had been clerking in the store of Lind
say & Co. at Taylorsville. She con
tinucd in that employment until there
