Third—I have never lectured in any hall in Denmark, fearing that Utah’s or Webster County’s citizen were present, as Mr. Peterson intimates. On the contrary, I knew as well as he did that about seventy of Utah’s missionaries would be at my meetings in the different cities. I have never said that in the schools of Utah the children are taught that the only God we worship is Father Adam. The Adam God theory was developed apart from the schools.
