We have endeavored to lay before
our readers some reasons for beiny
alow to accept; Mormonism. W-
quoted. "Dr. McMillan's review of
their artiqle of faith. We follow
today with his coucludmg impress

3 Articles of Faith which wt

by Joseph Sunn, their nrst prophet,
about sixty years ago. ;T he true
mean id g cf these articles bast -beet;
expiaiced and illustrated by precept
and example us above shown, from
taat day to this. Bat their mission--aries
will not tell you the truth
about it ah; they will allow you to
lesrn it by ead experience; and so it
oomes to pass that thousands of ihe'r
best people are turning away from
the system in disgust. Mormonism
is losing its controlling power id
Utah, bat not changing it? faith nor
its teachings. It has received no
latter revelation respecting its doc
trines or practices than those above.
Oo the contrary their first apostle
