John Steele writes, "I have worked in the Science [of astrology] for the last 40 years." He casts astrological charts before performing priesthood ordinances for the sick. He also inscribes paper charms against thieves and witches, and wax dolls to injure his enemies. Steele has been a Seventy since 1845, a member of the Mormon Battalion, marshal and mayor of Parowan, a stake presidency counselor, a participant in the Mountain Meadows Massacre, a probate judge, and a justice of the peace.
