Snarr, whom we have previously named
as d multimatrimonialist, is no other
than Daniel Snarr who used to live in
Salt Lake. He kept small store here,
as all his former neighbors know, and
lie employed q young woman there to
help him to attend to 1t. He went on
a mission to Germany, the girl continu-
ing to act as clerk for his little bust
ness, 1t appears that his maintena nee
in Germany somewhat taxed the profits
of his store, and the girl became his
creditor to a considerable sum, Upon
his return, however, he wiped out The
debt by making the young woman his
polygamous wife, and then skipped to
Mexico, whittier his first family fol-
lowed him shortly afterwards. He is
now counselor TO Bishop CHARLES W.
Lillywhite of MoreIos. Incidentally we
mention the fact that the polygamous
wife of Lillywhire, also married since

lord and master resided at the time they
committed their crime, both fleeing TO
Mexico and safety.
