William Hepworth Dixon, White Conquest: Volume 1, Chapter 21: polygamy. (search)
es. The biggest Indian chief is happy in a dozen squaws, and Brigham, though deserted by his youngest wife, still owns eighteen obedient slaves. Poor man, his last adventure in the way of courtship turned out badly; for his nineteenth bride, Ann Eliza, a young and handsome hussy, after trying him for a year, has left his house, renounced her creed, and under Gentile counsel, has brought an action for divorce. She wanted more of his society and of his money. Finding her charms neglected, AnAnn Eliza sold his furniture, fled to New York, and opened a course of lectures on the secrets of his harem.

Here were born three more children: Francis Marion, Louisa Cutler, and Ann Eliza. For some time before the birth of the lastnamed child, Mrs. Ward's health had been gradually failing, though every known measure had been used to restore it. There had been journeys to Niagara and up the Hudson, in the family coach, straw-col me to one last effort, and, summoning my utmost strength of tongue I succeeded in saying mother. Reminiscences, p. 8. All devices to restore the young mother's failing strength were in vain: soon after giving birth to the fourth daughter, Ann Eliza, she died. Her life had been pure, happy, and unselfish; yet her last hours were full of anguish. Reared in the strictest tenets of Evangelical piety, she was oppressed with terror concerning the fate of her soul; the sorrows of death compa
