John n urrier's heart was sore within him \ hen he thought of tlie young man's t turn, and of the impending loss of t s adopted child. Yet her bright id happy face reconciled him to the s rang? nient more than any argument > >uld have done, lie had always de- t rniined, deep down in his resolute i art, that nothing would ever induce t lm to allow his daughter to wed a ormon. Such a marriage he reirded as no marriage at all, but as \ shame and a disgrace. Whatever r e might think of the Mormon doc- i ine upon that one point he was in- t exible. lie had to seal his mouth r a the subject, however, for to ex- ' ress an unorthodox opoinion was a i angerous matter in those days in the j and <>] tne saints. t Yes, a dangerous matter?so dan- t 'roils that oven the most raintly dar- i1 only whisper their religious opin- 1 ins with hated breath, lest sonienng whieli fell from their lips might 1 e misconstrued and bring down a a ivift. retribution upon tlmm. The ictims of persecution had now turn- f il persecutors on their own account, < ml persecutors of the most terrible 1' escription. Not tho Inquisition of i ovi.llo, n,or the German Vehmge- i icht, nor tho secret socities of Italy 1 ere ever able to put a more formlda- < le machinery in motion than that f hich cast a cloud over the Territory s f Utah. v Its in visibility, and 1 ho mystery I hich was attached to it, made this t rgani/.ation doubly terrible. It ap- t eared to he omniscient and omnipoent, and yet was neither seen o?' t enrd. The man who held out gainst tho church vanished away, 1 nd none knew hither he had gone or s ,'hat had befallen him. His wife and hildren awaited him at home, but no ' ather had ever returned to tell them 1 iow he had fared at the hands of his '< ecret judges. A rash word or a hasy act was followed by annihilation, nd none knew whither he drifted or ' night be of this terrible power which ras suspended over them. Ni wonder hat men went about in fear and rumbling, and that even in the heart f the wilderness they dared not whisicr the doubts which oppressed them. At first this vacuo and terrthle nnw. r was exorcised only np'on the rocnlitrants, who, having embraced the ilormon faitii, wisliod afterward to lorvert or to abandon it. .Soon, however, it took a wider range. The suply of adult women was running short md polygamy, without a female popilation on which to draw, was a baron doctrine indeed. Strange rumors mgan to bo bandied about ?rumors >f murdered immigrants and rilled amps i 11 the regions where Indians lad never been seen. Fresh women ippeared in the harems of the elders women who pined and wept, and ore upon their faces the traces of un?xtinguisliable horror. Related wan* lerers upon the mountains spoke of :>ands of armed men, masked, stealthy, and noiseless, who flitted by hem in the darkness. These tales md rumors took substance and shape, md were corroborated and recorrob>rated, until they resolved themselves nto a (Vphnlte name. To this day, in ho lonely ranches of the West, the lame of the Danite Band or the Aver ^ing Angels, Is a sinister a?~d an 111Din ened one. Fuller knowledge of the organiza:ion which produced such terrible results served to increase rather than [o lessen the horror which it inspired in the minds of men. None knew ivho belonged to this ruthless society, rhe names of the participators in the leeds of blood and violence, done unlet the name of religion, were kept profoundly secret. The very friends o whom you communicated your misgivings as to the prophet and his misdon might be one of those who would mine forth at night with fire and sword to exact a terriblo reparation. Hence every man feared his neighbor tnd none spoke of the things which were nearest his heart. One fine morning John Ferricr was about to sot out to his wheat-fields when he heard the click of the latch, and looking through the window, saw a stout, sandy-haired, midle aged man coming up the pathway. His heart leaped to his mouth, for this was none other than the great Hrigt If-. a. J ? \ r 11-11 e A - 1 iia,in i uuiib niiuseii. I nil 01 irepiuadation, for ho knew lliat such a visit boded him little good, Ferrier ran to the door to greet the Mormon chief. The latter, however, received his salutation coldly, and followed him with a stern face into the sitting room. "Brother Ferrier," lie said, taking a seat and eying the farmer keenly from under his light-colored eyelashes, "the true believers have been good friends to you. We picked you up when you were starving in the desert, we shared our food with you, led you safe to the Chosen Valley, gave you a goodly share of land, and allowed you to wax rich under our protection. Ts not this so?" "It is so," answered John Ferrier. "In return for all this we asked but one condition: that, was, that you should embraco the true faith, and J on form in every way to its usages, his you promised to do, and this, if ommon report says truly, you have eglected." "And how have I neglected it?" ' sked Ferrier, throwing out his hands 11 expostulation. "Have I not given o the common fund? Have I not atunded at the temple? Have I not?" "Where are your wives?" asked roung, looking round him. "Call hem in, that 1 may greet 4hem." "It is true that I have not maried," Ferrier answered. "Hut wonen were few, and there were many rho had better claims than I. I was 1 lot a lonely man; 1 had my daughter K o attend to my wants." "It is of that daughter that I would peak to you," said the leader of the dormons. "She has grown to be the * lower of Utah, and has found favor 01 n the eyes of many who are high in he land." ^ John Ferrier groaned internally. "There are stories of her which I voulcl fain disbelieve?stories that die is scaled to some Cientile. This ' nust be the gossip of idle tongues. ^ A'hat is the thirteenth rule In the ' ode of the sainted Joseph Smith? c: 'Let every maiden of the true faith nuiijf wiim ui nit" uiei'i; lor n sue wen i Gentile, hIio commits a grievous n iin." This being so, it is impossible J hat you, who profess the holy cred, K diould suffer your daughter to vio- ? ato it." 3 John Ferrier made no answer, hut ie played nervously with his riding s1 vliij). _ A "I'pon this one point your whole a 'aith shall ho tested so it has been H lerided in the Sacred Council of it 'our. The girl is young, and wo would s: jot have her wed gray hairs, neither T vould we deprive her of all choice. 1 Are elders have many heifers, hut our u hildren must also he provided. Stan- c rerson has a son, and Drener has a son, and either of them would gladly 1 velcomc your daughter to their home. p .et her choose between them. They a ire young and rich, and of the true n aith. What say you to that?" e Ferrier remained silent, for some fl line with is brows knitted. v 'You will give us time," he said, at a last. "My daughter is very young? p die is scarce of an age to marry." "She shall have a month *o choose" n said Young, rising from his seat. "At p the end of that time she shall give j, answer." 1 He was passing through the door when he turned, with flushed face n and flashing eyes. j "It were better for you, John Fer- \ rier," he thundered, "that you were (, now lying blanched skeletons upon j the Sierra, lllnnca. than that von . should j>ut your weak wills against f the orders of the lloly Four!" n With a threatening gesture of his jhand ho turned from the door, and Forrier hear his heavy step serunehing along the shingly path. ITe was still sitting with his elbows upon his knees, considering how he * should broach the matter to his c daughter, when a soft hand was laid ( upon his, and looking up, he saw her 1 standing beside him. One glance at 1 her pale, frightened face showed him ^ that she had heard what had passed. 1 "I could not help it," she said, in r answer to his look. "His voice rang ( through the house. Oh, father! fath- * er! what shall we do?' "Don't you scare yourself," he an- 1 swered, drawing her to him and pass- 1 ing his broad, rough hand caressingly ( over her chestnut hair. "We'll tlx i it up somehow or another. You don't I find your fancy kind o' lessening for t this chap, do you?" 1 A sob and a squeeze of his hand 1 was her only answer. i "No; of course not.

If I know anything o' | that young man, he'll be bark hero ] with a speed that would whip electro- 1 telegraphs." < Lucy laughed through her tears at \ her father's description. I "When ho comes he will advise us for the best. But it is for you that I am frightened dear. One hears?one ( hears such dreadful stories about . those who oppose the prophet; some- , thing terrible always happens to them." '.But we haven't opposed him yet," her father answered. "It will bo timo to look out for squalls when wo do. We have a clear month before us; at ' the end of that I guess we had best ( skin out of Utah." "Leave Utah?" "That's about the size of it.'" "But tho farm?" "Wo will raise as much as wo can in money, and let tho rest go. To toll tho truth, Buoy, it isn't tho first time T havo thought of doing it. I don't oaro about knuckling undor any man, as thoso folks do to thoir darnod prophet. I'm a free-born American, and it's all now to me. Guess I'm too old to learn. If ho comes browsing I about' this farm ho might ehanoo to run up against a charge of buckshot traveling in tho opposite direction." "But they won't lot us leave," his daughter objected. "Wait till Jefferson comes and wo will manage that. In the meantime, don't you fret yourself, my dearie, and don't get your eyes swelled up, or else he'll bo walking into mo when ho Rees you. There's nothing to be nfenri about, and there's ^o danger at all.'
