If You Live Up To Your Privileges,

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.

Let The Saints Remember That Great Things Depend On Their Individual Exertion, And That They Are Called To Be Co-workers With Us And The Holy Spirit In Accomplishing The Great Work Of The Last Days

It Is Said That Brother Joseph In His Lifetime Declared That The Elders Of This Church Should Step Forth At A Particular Time When The Constitution Should Be In Danger, And Rescue It, And Save It. This May Be So; But I Do Not Recollect That He Said Exactly So. I Believe He [joseph] Said Something Like This - That The Time Would Come When The Constitution And The Country Would Be In Danger Of An Overthrow; And Said He, If The Constitution Be Saved At All, It Will Be By The Elders Of This Church. I Believe This Is About The Language, As Nearly As I Can Recollect It.
