Truth Revealed From Heaven Is Worth More Than All The Notions Of Men.

While Other Men Were Peacefully Following Their Vocations And Extending Their Interests They [the Saints In Clay County] Have Been Deprived Of The Right Of Citizenship, Prevented From Enjoying Their Own, Charged With Violating The Sacred Principles Of Our Constitution And Laws.

Patience Is Heavenly, Obedience Is Noble, Forgiveness Is Merciful, And Exaltation Is Godly; And He That Holds Out Faithful To The End Shall In No Wise Lose His Reward. A Good Man Will Endure All Things To Honor Christ, And Even Dispose Of The Whole World, And All In It, To Save His Soul.

The Constitution Should Contain A Provision That Every Officer Of The Government Who Should Neglect Or Refuse To Extend The Protection Guaranteed In The Constitution Should Be Subject To Capital Punishment; And Then The President Of The United States Would Not Say, "your Cause Is Just, But I Can Do Nothing For You."

Happiness Is The Object And Design Of Our Existence; And Will Be The End Thereof, If We Pursue The Path That Leads To It; And This Path Is Virtue, Uprightness, Faithfulness, Holiness, And Keeping All The Commandments Of God.
