The Practice of carrying firearms
was not abandoned or suspended even
on the Sabbath An old pioneer states
that on one occasion religious serv-

the preacher proclaimed the gospel of
peace with his hand and his clothing
covered with blood from deer that
ne had killed and butchered on his
way to the meeting that morning.
The pioneer preachers labored with
out money and without price They
gained their subsistence as did their
neighbors. by the rifle and by their
daily toll in the clearings and the
corn fields
