Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 16: December, 1912, Organ of the Priesthood Quorums, the Young Men's Mutual Improvement Associations, and the Schools of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day SaintsWe have had some very sad experiences of late - a large number of our colonists in Mexico have had serious cause for the exercise of faith, patience, forbearance, hope and charity this year, and many of them, I have no doubt, have found it difficult under circumstances which prevail around them to see how the hand of the Lord could ever be made manifest for their good. They have been robbed, plundered and driven from their homes, their rights have been denied them, their property taken away from them, the safety of their wives and daughters jeopardized and their lives threatened, and at last they found it necessary to abandon their homes and possessions, and come away from that land of riot and murder, brigandage and robbery, in order that they might escape at least with their lives, and quite a few have not been fortunate enough to get away with their lives, but have fallen by the hands of marauders and assassins.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
