Show Dellenbaugh- D News. The Deseret News was a newspaper, wasn• ft it? A Yes. Q And although you say it was fostered by the Mormon Church, it exercised no church authority in itself, so far as you know? A Not so far as I know. Q Do you have any reason to believe that letters and other matters appearing in the Deseret News were caused to there appear for any other reason than similar communications in other newspapers appear? A No, not at all. Q All you mean to say is, it is your understanding that at times, quite often, I believe, you said, when a party went out into any of the outlying country, that some member of the party would write a letter to the paper about it and the paper would publish it? A They kept records as they went, and some one would write letters to the papers -- for example, I can give you an example -- Q Well, these communications that you have from the Deseret News were merey letters that they had written to the News? A Yes. MR. FARNSWORTH: That is all. |
