“I said, We have been outrageously imposed upon by United States' officials. They send out every rag-tag and bobtail, and every mean nincompoop they can scrape up from the filth and scum of society, and dub him a United States' officer; and are we expected to receive all manner of insults from such men without one word of complaint?”John Taylor, August 9, 1857 · Difference Between The Spirit of Zion and the Spirit of The World—Doings in The States, Etc. · JD 5:112-123
