When he spoke again it was apparently as if to himself. "Al Moody sprung it in the Gallatin country a few years back," he said reflectively. "And old Con Ristine worked it on the Nations Cow-trail twenty years ago. It always brings the split." "That kind of thing is dead against the law," the sheriff said. "But it works right well that backfire stuff.
It is my purpose and intention to free my mind and bring to light some of the secret workings of the Priesthood. To return to the election at Gallatin: The brethren all attended the election. All things seemed to pass off quietly, until some of the Mormons went up to the polls to vote. I was then lying on the grass with McBrier and a number of others.
It bears a strong affinity to the Mohican and the Chippeway, but more especially the Kickapoo.

The maintenance of such a system required money, and a high tariff of duties on imports was a necessary concomitant to Internal Improvements.
Gallatin, such an idea would naturally seem too improbable to be entertained for a moment, but, in the light of later events, and the actual state of things at present, does not the fact show that, even in his darkest hours, there was in this extraordinary man that unabated faith in his future which was a harbinger of success; a faith which pierced the dark clouds which surrounded him, and realized to him in marvellous prophetic vision that which we see at this day and hour fully accomplished?"
