Scope and Contents

"I took the liberty to tell an Elder, last Sunday I did not want him to come on the Stand drunk as his breath smelt so strong of liquor that the Spirit of the Lord could not abide there. He went home, sent the president of the branch a note stating that he had burnt his Hymn Book and all other works, he had of the Church, and would burn his Book of Mormon 'as soon as he could find it.'"
