have the brand that his stock are branded with.
He ought to have that, I think it is due him. He might
pay if the committee consider it necessary, but
he certainly ought to have it. I myself, do not think
that any man that went into that order and left it
took any less stock or property than what he put in,
and I think, generally, more. Whatever increase
of property there was in that order I am satisfied
that Lot Smith was the main instrument in
making it. I was with him two years and I am
satisfied he doid more work than any two men
in the order. He cut every acre of Wheat and
Lucerne. He was at the head of all the water ditches
and led in all the hard work. There has been a
good deal of prejudice against him for years past.
He went there by order of President Young and has
tried to carry out his counsel in all respects on that
work. I think that a man, that has gone through
what he has from this youth up for the Church and
Kingdom of God, ought not to be crushed injustly.
