Adams has been disfellowshipped and cut off from the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.-His conduct has been such as to disgrace him in the eyes of justice and virtue, and we cannot and will not sanction a man who is guilty of such things, as we have every reason to believe that he has been from the most indubitable testimony; we have for some time been unwilling to believe the foul statements made concerning him; but the nature of the testimony now adduced, compels us to believe that the statements are but too true, and that under the sacred garb of religion, he has been practising [practicing] the most disgraceful and diabolical conduct. We think it just to the saints at large to make this statement. And let this be a warning to other elders, if there are any guilty of like conduct. Done by order of the council, BRIGHAM YOUNG, Pres. WILLARD RICHARDS, Clerk. Why is the term eternity used so often by men? The bible, as translated, useth it but once.
