No vessel going this week will detain them until
the 26th. We have not heard any more from
Pres. Schoenfeldt. We instructed the Saints to ap-
peal against the unjust accusations made against
them as follows "the saints in Switzerland should [preach]
against the falsehoods that have been used to bring
about that document you say you have received
because it is not true that the teachings and principles
are opposed to the good order and principles ^morality^ of the
of the Swiss republic and its constitution. If the
Court has received testimony to that effect it is false.
It is the very opposite to the truth, because anyone
adopting the principles of the gospel as taught by
the Latter day Saints become better citizens. The
police records show no "mormon" so called has
been convicted of crime. The Swiss saints should
appeal for their rights under the constitution and
protest against any such discision because they
happen to be unpopul and state that they have the
Truth that God has spoken and revealed His gospel
and their experience and testimony, how they
have been benefited by obeying it, placing it
before the court in a clear and forcible manner"
etc etc. What will be the result is in the hands of
God. The desire of the wicked is to stop the gos-
pel being taught. The wicked are not going to
have it all there own way. With kind love

Your brother in the cause!
