[Joseph Smith] Joseph writes to Vienna Jaques in Independence, thanking her for her pecuniary offerings and also stating in reference to the Missouri persecutions, "I am not at all astonished at what has happened to you, neither to what has happened to Zion, and I could tell all the whys and wherefores of all these calamities. But alas, it is in vain to warn and give precepts, for all men are naturally disposed to walk in their own paths."
