        Daniel Dunklin to James Thornton, June 6, 1834 
         
    W. W. Phelps writes that in late April a report that Mormons were coming to take their lands brings the mob out for war. They burn most of the 170 Mormon structures. Depredations in Clay county. Some non-Mormons leaving Jackson. Only God can stop the mob.   W. W. Phelps to the Star, May 1, 1834
    John Corrill writes in mid-June that Jackson county mob leaders spread word that the Mormons are coming, burn remaining Mormon property and blame it on the Mormons. Hundreds of armed men ready to repel any Mormon attempt to return; agitating citizens of Clay county. Some residents leaving Jackson. Mormon intentions purely defensive, governor assurres protection.   John Corrill to the Star, June 14, 1834
