* Polygamist - polygamy trial

Page 4 has a report: "A Polygamist on Trial" with a dateline from Salt Lake. This is about the case of John Connelly, likely the result of the recent Edmunds Act which is a federal statute signed into law in 1882 declaring polygamy a felony in federal territories.
Twelve pages, the back leaf is irregular at the spine but causes no loss of text, otherwise nice condition.
