CHAPTER XXIII.
NAUVOO.

From his prison in Missouri, Joseph had advised his brethren to buy land in
the state of Illinois and Iowa. Towards these states, therefore, the Saints
had fled, leaving merciless, blood-stained Missouri to the judgment of God.
Twenty years afterwards when the great war broke out between the North and
the South, Missouri was one of the fiercest battle grounds, and its people
suffered terribly for the misery and bloodshed they had brought upon the
Saints.
The people of Illinois received the homeless Saints kindly, and sold them
land upon which to live.
