125 years ago today - 125 years - Aug 29, 1888

[Franklin D. Richards] At 10 met with M[oses]. T[hatcher]. & J[ohn]. R. W[inder]. & discussed items urged by J[ohn]. W. Young both of which we deem impolitic at present.

Government has what represents $800,000 of our Church property in its Receiver s hands- has inflicted perhaps $200-000 fines and caused us to pour out money like water to pay Attorneys for best legal defence we can get & now J[ohn]. W. Y[oung]. thinks we should advance money to help assure Dem[ocratic]. party we are sincere in our politics.
