1856. This work contains a narrative of many years' personal experience of a wife of a Mormon elder, recently from Utah. The author, knowing as she does, the evils and horrors and abominations of the Mormon system, the degradation it imposes on females, and the consequent vices which extend through all the ramifications of the society, a sense of duty to the world induced the author to prepare the following narrative for the public eye. The romantic incidents connected with her experience, many may think bordering on the marvelous. To them she would say, that this narrative of her life only proves, what has so often been proved before, that "Truth is stranger than fiction."
