D. 1842.-It seems that Satan and his emmisaries [emissaries] are determined to bring the saints into notice, and raise an excitement among the people. Although we deprecate the spirit which actuates those who engage in such plans to put down the truth, yet we are assured that in the providence of God they will ultimately tend to the glory of God-the spread of truth and the good of the church. Although the world be flooded with lies and evil reports; let the servant of God go forth, "with the pure testimony put forth by the spirit," and they will brush away the cob webs of superstition, and the refuge of lies will be swept away. + The Saints are informed that the quorum of the Seventies have withdrawn their fellowship from Elder Jesse Turpin, until he make satisfaction, to said quorum for his conduct. By order of the quorum of seventies. A. P. Rockwood, Clerk. City of Nauvoo, August 14th A. D. 1841.
