[Francis M. Lyman]
Pres[ident] Cannon ... spoke much and sharply against Christian science and the doctrine of reincarnation of the Styners. ... then we walked with bro[ther] Roberts to the Historians office. On our way I warned him it was dangerous to be too friendly with Maggie Ship. I said you have both been married and you should be very careful. Hence I felt I should warn you. He smiling said, if I would keep the secret he would tell me. I promised and he said, "we are married" I was very ready to say, "all right and the joke is on me."
