MORMON PIETY.
Birmingham, July 28th, 1857.
Dr. Brindley—
You are an infamous old reptile, you go preaching to your own damnation, you create a dislike for the people of God. You fancy no doubt that you will be allowed to continue quietly in your career of sin and impiety, but I tell you that before you are a week older you will meet with such social opposition that has never fell to the lot of man from the time of the omnipotent Adam to the present day. I would advise you to stop your wicked doing, or you will be damned to all eternity; flesh and blood can't stand it any longer; instead of praising us for our forbearance, you attribute it to inability; you have challenged us to oppose you, you shall have what you wish to-morrow night, at the Town Hall; we will allow you the first half-hour, and then we will bring such proofs that must entirely disconcert you. So farewell till then, you d— old rascal.
Yours, &c.,
T. H. B.
P.S. —
there will be some saints there to protect us, as well as devils to protect you.
