| Elopes with an insane
young woman? |
|
February 23, 1833 Warren
Cowdery writes a letter to a Colonel William Raven of Youngstown, reporting that
Heman has been seen in the Freedom, New York area with a young woman, about
20 years old, who is: |
|
|
| |
|
apparently insane, yet modest and
rather taciturn. She conceals or has forgotten her own name and place of
residence, though she often speaks of Youngstown, of Elder Benton, and
has mentioned Rigdon. She is a good reader and has the appearance of having
come from a good family, and having been accustomed to good society. Her
friends, if she has any, doubtless are now lamenting her unpleasant situation
and untimely elopemet, and would deem it an act of humanity to be notified
where she may be found. |

and his mother, on account of the strength of her traditions, thought that
we were wrong, and told me afterwards that she would much rather have
followed him to an earthly grave than to have seen him baptized. |
