Letter to Orson Hyde-- Directed to Orson Hyde at Nauvoo, this letter pictures conditions in the Camp of Israel and urges those still remaining in Nauvoo to turn their backs on the Temple of the Lord and emigrate to some "consecrated spot, where the Kingdom of God may be built up, and we may do his will as the angels do it, undisturbed."
