[Heber J. Grant]

Bishp Edward S. Rich of the East Mill Creek Ward called and gave us a copy of a blessing given by Patriarch Homer Brown to John T. Clark. Brother Clark is one of the men who has recently entered into so-called plural marriage. Brother Rich says that Brother Brown is making a specialty of blessing people who have entered into alleged plural marriage. He promised to furnish us some additional evidence of Brother Brown's improper methods. We cannot help but hope, on account of his life-long labors and having such a splendid son as the president of the Lethbridge Stake, that Brother Brown is not mixed up in giving comfort and consolation to people who are still insisting that plural marriage is the proper thing.
