Sunday Meeting opened by Prayer by James Cummings. President Young themn called upon J. D. Ross who addressed the Saints followed
By James Ferguson whose hands & armes shook like a man
with the num palsey. He spoke vary well He was followed by G. A.
Smith, H. C. Kimball & President Young, who spoke vary plain upon
the subject of Betraying our Brethren as some had done these He said they
should be cut off from the Church, & not be permitted to again return
untill they had repented in dust & ashes & then dont give them the
priesthood again but let them set back & not take the place of good
men. In the Afternoon we partook of the Sacrament President
Kimball spoke to the people followed by President Young when
He finished speaking a list of Names was read who had signed
a document Betraying the brethren & they were all cut off some 16
in number. We here found Brother Thomas B. Marsh quite crazy
He had [been] confined by being chained up He was now better att[end]ed
meeting He kept his tongue runing like a sFlutter wheel when He
had a chance & the spittle drulling down out of his mouth, this
shows a sample of Apostacy & the Effects of Betraying his
Brethren. The following are the names of the different Devils
which He says are tormenting him he gave the Names as follows
Marrianeuba Anonondo Oie
Harrewansdo Dononvah
Toddewendah Tonanando
Gandesande Annonvah
Sotecalandaco Pluto
when Oie got into him He
