Description
Excerpt from Life in Utah, or the Mysteries and Crimes of Mormonism: Being an Exposé of the Secret Rites and Ceremonies of the Latter-Day Saints
Beadle''s writings were the most downright and convincing of the relentless antagonists of Mormon ism, and the developments in the case of Senator Smoot will renew the emphasis of his severities and revive interest in his writings.
Miss Kate Field-also visited Utah, and had the advantage of being a brave woman with true womanly sympathies; but her warfare, though brilliant and forcible, was not fought to a finish, for she was called away to be historian of the Hawaiian Islands during the agitation that preceded the annexation of the Archipelago. Exposure in an exploring expedition caused her death in Honolulu. Her analysis, from personal observation, as that of Beadle, of the testi mony found in the Senate documents, would have been an increase of electric light on a dark subject.
