 THE STORY OF THE MORMONS Vol 6, Chap 21
On October 9 Young appeared in court with the leading men of the church, and a motion to quash the indictment was made before the chief justice and denied.
When the case against Young, on the charge of improper cohabitation, was called on November 20, his counsel announced that he had gone South for his health, as was his custom in winter, and the prosecution thereupon claimed that his bail was forfeited.
Young was driven to his own residence by the deputy marshal for dinner, and, after taking what clothing he required, was conducted to the penitentiary, where he was locked up in a cell for a short time, and then placed in a room in the warden's office for the night.

 Wife number 19 by Ann Eliza Young, chapters 11-20
They were all robust young men, too; better fitted to endure a journey like the one ordained for them by their Prophet, than the feeble old men and women, the young wives, mothers, and maidens, and the tiny, toddling children, who formed a great portion of the other company.
Whatever may have been Brigham Young's connection with the massacre itself, - whether it was done at his instigation or merely with his connivance, - he was, to all intents and purposes, the murderer of these people, and should be held responsible for their lives.
Only seventeen of those supposed to be too young to remember any of the occurrences of this fearful day were saved and of these seventeen, two were disposed of after reaching Salt Lake City, for making some remarks concerning the massacre, which showed an intelligence beyond their years.

She was a young widow living in Nauvoo when Brigham discovered her, and recognizing her useful qualities, had her sealed to him as soon as he could arrange for it.
Eliza Burgess, the wife who is said to have "served seven years" for her husband, is an English woman, a native of Manchester, and came to Nauvoo with her parents among the very earliest of the Mormon emigrants.
She married him when quite young, but she never was a firm believer in Polygamy, indeed, she distrusted the principles of it from the very beginning, and had many struggles of conscience before she could make up her mind to marry the Prophet, and she suffered perpetual remorse ever after.

 Brigham Young's Wives and His Divorce From Ann Eliza Webb
The oldest child, Elizabeth Young Ellsworth, was fifty-two at Brigham's death and the youngest, Fannie Young Clayton, was seven.
Brigham Young filed a counter petition stating that, though it was unknown to him previously, Ann Eliza was not divorced at the time of the marriage, which was at any rate a 'plural or celestial marriage' and thus not legal.
In Utah, it was incumbent upon Young to prove, either that Ann Eliza was not divorced from James L. Dee at the time of the plural marriage, or that he was legally married to Mary Ann Angell.

 Ann Eliza TenEyck 1850 letter to a friend
The letter, dated 2 October of that same year, may at first glance seem a bit difficult to read as Ann used very little puncuation in the letter and rarely used capitalization at the beginning of a new sentence.
Although Ann was born in Huntersland, NY, we are wondering if English may have been a second language for Ann as her parents were of French ancestry.
Ann's penmanship though is very good, and we have tried to transcribe the letter to the best of our ability.

Born and reared in the midst of these deluded people, removed from all counteracting influences, it was inevitable that Mrs.
Young should accept their beliefs, and be drawn into their practices.

WHAT is your opinion of Mormon polygamy as a religious tenet?" was asked of an eminent divine, upon his return from a visit to Utah, where he had spent several weeks in investigating the system, with eyes, ears, and heart wide open.
Ann Eliza Young, in dedicating her book, "My Life in Bondage," to the Mormon wives of Utah, says, “So long as God shall spare my life, I shall pray and plead for your deliverance from the worse than Egyptian bondage in which you arc held.
Despised, maligned, and wronged; kept in gross ignorance of the great world outside,-its pure creeds, its high aims, its generous motives,-you have been led to believe that the noblest nation on earth is but a horde of miscreants, and that every one outside of your own church is your enemy, and plotting your destruction."

When Brigham Young said Ann [169] Eliza was not his wife, did he not tacitly avow that neither of his other plural wives were married to him, and that in consequence their children were illegitimate?
