The top of the front page has a one column heading: "ROBERTS ARGUED" with subheads. (see images)
Ten pages, light toning, some margin wear, should be handled with care.
wikipedia notes: Brigham Henry Roberts was a historian, politician, and leader in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). He edited a popular six-volume history of the LDS Church and also wrote Studies of the Book of Mormon—published posthumously—which discussed the validity of the Book of Mormon as an ancient record. Roberts was denied a seat as a member of United States Congress because of his practice of polygamy.
