A Mormon Woman Denounces Her Religion

One of the daughters of Brigham Young has been expelled from the church, because she sued for her share of her father's property. When entreated to return, she said: "My father, prophet though you call him, broke many a woman's heart. If it was required of me to break as many hearts and ruin as many women as my father did, I should go to perdition before I would go back into the church. A religion which breaks women's hearts and ruins them, is of the devil. That's what Mormonism does. Don't talk to me of my father!"
