THE LATTER-DAY SAINTS' CHAPEL AT SUNDERLAND, ENGLAND
     Here the Latter-day Saints taught the principles of the gospel, and served the
Lord.   Owing to prejudice, created in the minds of the people from hearing false and
defamatory    reports of the Latter-day Saints, a recent mob, numbering thousands,
ignorant of what they did, let us hope, broke every window in the building; some went
into the auditorium shown in the lower picture, stood upon the pulpit swearing, upset
chairs, turned the stove over, and released into a crowded room foul-smelling fumes.
The elders standing back of the pulpit are A. G. Brain, Joseph Parmley, R. Belknap,
President Lichfield, Prof. J. J. McClellan, E. Stevenson Wilcox, Master Douglas Mc-
Clellan, E. J. Meed and W. Simpson.     In the upper picture the same group are shown
in front of the chapel.    Anti-"Mormon" posters on the building to the left, people
"peeking" through the curtains in adjoining buildings, and the giggling boy on the
right, show the spirit of the place.  Should the mob come to Utah, singly or in company, the Saints would gladly show them every courtesy, and with this same McClellan
at the organ, give them an unexcelled musical entertainment, and convince them that
Latter-day Saints are among the purest, most cleanly, virtuous, intelligent, and broad
minded people in all the world. The citizens of Sunderland need enlightenment.
