Title: Opinions Concerning the Bible Law of Marriage.
Description: Philadelphia: Claxton, Remsen & Haffelfinger, 1871. Anonomously published Anti-Polygamy, Anti-Mormon tract. "My readers need not be told that the holy law of marriage, as the Creator at the "beginning" established it, has been set aside, trampled upon and openly rejected, by a set of persons styling themselves "Mormons, or Latter Day Saints," now established in a Territory of the United States, and who have been seeking admission into the Union..In short, the question of admitting the Territory of Utah as a State into our Union must be tried and decided chiefly on this issue - Whether polygamy is not a sin against God's law of equality in marriage, and therefore an outrage on the inalienable rights of humanity, which outrage would, if allowed, infallibly destroy the freedom of women and the republican equality of men?"
