George Reynolds autobiography, ca 1878.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/367843493

George Reynolds writes about his clandestine visits to meetings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as a young man. Because he was baptized in 1856, his parents were advised to shut him up in an asylum. They didn't take that advice. He was called to preach in 1861, and continued to strengthen the Church in England until his immigration to Utah in 1865. In Utah, he worked in the office of the Presidency of the Church. He served a mission to England in 1871, but contracted smallpox and had to be sent home. He went to court for keeping the law of plural marriage. This autobiography ended after he had had six children with his wife Mary Ann and two with Amelia Jane, around 1877 or 1878.
