HE first edition of The True Origin of Mormon Polyg amy was published in the year 1910. This edition being disposed of, the second is now presented to the public. At the time that this book was first written, the author had at hand but few of the original works of the Mormon Church, but, since its appearance, through the kindness of Mr. Z. H. Gurley, of Canton, Missouri, now deceased, and Hon. A. T. Schroeder, of Cos Cob, Connecticut, he has had access to nearly all of the old literature of Mormonism, from which he has made a number of extracts both for the body of the work and also for a large number of footnotes which confirm what has already been written. To the Josephite Mormon who may chance to read this production, we simply say: Consult your own early litera ture and you will find that what the author has written is true. The celebrated Berrien collection of Mormon books.
