* Early Mormons - Latter Day Saints

Page 3 contains a quite early article on the Mormons, with a small heading: "Mormonism". The text notes in part: "...that difficulties have already began in the Mormon community at Mount Zion, in that quarter; one of the members having sued the Bishop...It appears by another letter...that since their settlement at Mount Zion--or Jerusalem, as they sometimes term it--400 or 500 of these deluded wretches, including men, women, and children, have arrived there. Several others are said to be preparing to start there, from Cincinnati, in the course of a few weeks."
Four pages, good condition.
