Excerpt from Autobiography of Elder R. C. Evans: One of the First Presidency of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints "Oh that mine adversary had written a book." - Job 31 : 35. Whatever else a man may do, he should hesitate before putting a record of his thoughts, words, and deeds, as known to himself, into the hands of both enemies and friends. After due consideration, however, I have decided to offer the following retrospect of my life. My chief object is that those who are associated with me as coworkers in the cause of truth as seen by us through the intervention of "The Comforter, " may know the causes which led me to accept the "angel's message" delivered to the world through the Palmyra Seer, and see in the testimonies herein given a reflex of their own experiences under the same divine ministration, "which giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not." He who would do his fellow-men good must himself conform to the truth in his thought, word, and deed, in the review which he takes of his life and work in his own cause. How much greater, then, the necessity that one working in a cause dearer and grander than one given up to human aspiration and achievement alone, should suffer no control to move his thought or pen other than "the Spirit of truth."
