As soon as I discovered that the Mormons were angry, I made some inquiries as to the cause, but, of course, could only learn one side of the story, but the substance of it was that the Mormons claimed that the emigrants of Bakers train had insulted their women, and had accused the Mormons of poisoning the water that had killed some of the emigrant's cattle.
