Imposters at Large.

By Uriah Smith

IN THE REVIEW OF July 7, 1874, we exposed a person by the name of L. D. Bruce who was endeavoring to obtain money from the brethren in different places on pretense that he was connected with this Office, and happened unexpectedly to be in need, and when he returned would repay, &c., &c. He was then operating in Canada.
A sister now writes from Champlain, N. Y., that there is a person there calling himself Wm. L. Smith, putting forth a similar pretense. Either this is the same person under a new name, or another imposter equally contemptible. The law is clear against all attempts to obtain money on false pretenses; and we advise our brethren to make it unpleasant for all such vagrants and vampires. U. S.
