The icture of hundreds of families crossing the river in February and establishing a temporary abode in Iowa is indeed a pathetic one. What feelings must have rankled their hearts as they faced the wintry blasts and icy waters of the Mississippi and turned towards he far off western country where they were to seek a new asylum remote from the centers of civilisation! When they looked for the last time upon the beautiful city of Nauvoo which their toil and industry had built, bitter indeed must have been resentment against those who were the cause of their misery. Not only could they find no abiding place in Illinois, Missouri, or Arkansas, but apparently nowhere within the confines of the United States, the country they loved and whose constitution they revered as divine. Hence their eyes were being turned in the direction of a remote region then belonging to Mexico. To be sure, the definite locality was somewhat vague, but the Great Basin or Salt Lake valley had been discussed favorably for some time. Still incidentally other plans were toyed with. In fact, letters were sent out in various directions asking for help. One to Governor such was written Thomas S. Drew of Arkansas. He B. & P. W.

Conditions on this road have been extremely bad throughout the summer. Though road patrols are constantly grading the highway, only a day or two are necessary to return it to its terrible washboard condition. V I While we would much prefer seeing some son, there appeared in 1846 a notice to the saints throughout the world that "The Exodus of the only true Israel from these United States to a far distant region of the West wdiere bigotry and insatiable oppression will have lost its power over them, forms a new epoch, not only in the history of the church, but of this nation. This statement signed by Brigham acYoung and the apostles is in the of cord with declarations leaders, quoted in previous Such declarations coupled with various extravagant rumors led to the belief that perhaps the Mormons would go West and in case of war join England or Mexico against their own country. One basis for the belief was a letter of Governor Edwards of Missouri to Wm. L. Marcy, Secretary of The MorWar. In this he said mons are a bad and deluded sect, and they have been badly treated; but I suppose very correctly, yet they do not believe so, and under the treatment they have received, if they are not enemies, both of our people and our government, then they are better Christians and purer patriots than other denominations, a thing which nobody in the West can believe. To counteract such rumors and give assurance of the loyalty of the Mormons, Elder Jesse C. Little wrote Pres. Polk that the Mormons as well a3 myself are true hearted Americans, true to our country, true to its laws, and true to its glorious institutions, and the High Council at Nauvoo published a greeting to the Saints and to whom it may concern, a circular letter in which occurred the following: We also further declare for the satisfaction of some who have concluded that our grievances have anienated us from our country, that our patriotism has not been overcome by fire, by sword, by daylight nor by midnight assassinations which we have endured; neither have they alienated us from the institutions of our country." Nevertheless the saints were directing their course to a land belonging to a foreign country. (Another article of this series will appear nert week.) y, ning.
