Transcription

No man that we know of in these parts has fewer friends or is less deserving of friends. Mr. Hyde's ordination of the Lamanite prophet, alias, the Negro Christ Adam, &c., the marriage of this black Adam with his white Eve, alias--Virgin Mary is well understood here. Can Mr. Hyde tell how many wives this negro has altogether black and white?
