After the encampment, Bishop Miller introduced Dr. Jewett to Dr. Richards in his tent, also President Young. Dr. Jewett gave a long history of experiments on animal magnetism and said it had nearly cured him of infidelity, and he thought the Mormons would understand the principle. President Young told him he did perfectly, that we believed in the Lord's magnetizing, that he magnetized Belthashazer so that he saw the handwriting on the wall.
