Origin of RLDS/Questions of Succession (1909)

From the Introduction to "Origin of the Reorganized Church:" "During the summer of 1906 and continuing until the summer of 1907, a number of Reorganite ministers who were engaged in missionary work in Salt Lake City and Ogden, were greatly encouraged by one or two apostates and the local anti-Mormon press. Their method of proselyting was of the usual nature, a tirade of abuse and false accusations hurled at the authorities of the Church. Encouraged by the anti-Mormon help, they became extremely vindictive in their references to President Brigham Young and the present Church authorities. Their sermons were so bitter and malignant - which has been the character of most of their work from the beginning in Utah - that they raised considerable protest from many respectable citizens." 139 pages
