I I j TRUTH STRANGER TH AN FICTION A Slartliny Work —Female Life among', , the Mormons —a narrative of many years personal experience, by Mi ria Ward, the wife of x Mormon Elder. j •‘That one half of the world cannot imagine ' how the other half live,” is unless true than I trite; and the lesson our adage affords, our ex- j perience and observation daily tends to verify. 1 ; Then, too, when we consider the ever varing j phases of human passion, and the discordant | I elements from which all novel and fanatical | sects are moulded, it can scarcely seem sur prising that a faithful feerrrd of aCtnal events should exceed in singularity the wildest dream 1 ;of romance; nr that crimes, both strange and i ' unnatural, should be perpetrated in a far off country on the outskirts of rivilizatioii. which people in another st ile of society would never I imagine possible. Knowing as Ido know, the | evils and hnrrors and abominations of the Mormon system, the degradation it iimosos on females'.and the consequent vices which extend ' through all the ramifications of the society, a; sense of diitv to the world has induced me to. prepare the following narrative for the public eve.
