Additional Details

The LDS apostle John Taylor (1808-1887) visited the Isle of Man on a mission with his wife, who had been raised there. His lectures there brought him into conflict with the local clergy, and this pamphlet was his response to one hostile Methodist minister. He addresses the Solomon Spaulding allegations and more, and notes "Mr. Heys seems to forget the time when Methodist ministers were belied and slandered, as we are now belied and slandered by him." Crawley 87; Flake 8810. None others traced at auction since 1957.
