a Mormon he would have been charged

then exhorted the Presiding Bishop
to settle with the First Presidency and
all the Bishops, and require their tithing,
the one-tenth of all their real estate, of
the value of their farms and possessions,
and all they have got, and then see that
the Bishops settle with every man, and
that he pays his tithing or we will disfel-
lowship him from the Church. I will
sell every particle of my property if a man
can be found who will pay the cash, and
I will put it all into the hands of Bishop
, and I will begin anew, and in
five years God will so bless me that I
shall be richer than any man in this
community.
He then called on the First Presidency,
the , High Priests, Seven-

willing to do as he told them, when all
hands were immediately raised.
He lifted his hands on high and with
all the powers of the Holy Priesthood

name of the Lord God of Israel, when all
the people cried, Amen.
