    SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY MOB: VIOLENCE AGAINST RELIGIOUS OUTSIDERS IN THE U.S. SOUTH, 1865-1910 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Patrick Q. Mason, B.A., M.A., M.A. ________________________________ R. Scott Appleby, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana July 2005 © Copyright by PATRICK Q. MASON 2005 All rights reserved SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY MOB: VIOLENCE AGAINST RELIGIOUS OUTSIDERS IN THE U.S. SOUTH, 1865-1910 Abstract by Patrick Q. Mason Studies of violence in the late nineteenth-century South focus almost exclusively on racial and political violence against African Americans. While this emphasis is both understandable and appropriate, what has been largely neglected is the violence committed against religious outsiders, and more generally their overall treatment in what was essentially a hegemonic culture of evangelical Protestantism. In addition to the many instances of violence against African American churches and ministers, the South also witnessed dozens of episodes of anti-Jewish violence and literally hundreds of cases of anti-Mormon violence from 1865 to 1910. Acknowledging and understanding this relatively hidden chapter in American history provides us with unique insights into postbellum southern culture and the sometimes violent side of the American experiment in religious pluralism. This dissertation adds to the growing body of scholarship exploring the relationships between religion and violence in southern history and American history more broadly by making three primary contributions. First, it uncovers numerous untold narratives of violence against southern religious outsiders.

The Mantle of the Prophet Joseph Passes to Brother Brigham: One Hundred Twenty-nine Testimonies of a Collective Spiritual Witness Lynne Watkins Jorgensen n August 8, 1844, six weeks after the Prophet Joseph Smith’s Omartyrdom, a meeting of the Saints was held in Nauvoo, Illinois. Brigham Young, President of the Quorum of the Twelve, and several other apostles had just returned from missions. The purpose of this meeting was to determine by vote who had the right and responsibil- ity to lead the Church—Sidney Rigdon, first counselor in the First Presidency, or the Quorum of the Twelve with Brigham Young at their head.1 In the course of the two meetings held that day, many in attendance received a divine witness that Brigham Young was to be the next leader: some Saints specifically state that Brigham Young assured the congregation that “here is President Sidney Rigdon, who was counselor to Joseph. I ask, where are Joseph and Hyrum? They 1.

  • The World of Joseph Fielding: Chapter 25
    The World of Joseph Fielding: Chapter 25 Fielding Siblings Learn of Mary Fielding Smith’s Tragic Widowhood News of the murders reached England. Months later, Mercy and Mary each wrote letters to their siblings. Their brother James, a Christian minister, replied in a heartless fashion, writing a letter devoid of compassion: Your letter, I refer to Sister Mary’s, came yesterday. Sister Mercy’s several months since. We had received the intelligence of J. and H. Smith some time before the arrival of Sister Mercy’s letter. We were of course much struck when we heard of the event and sincerely sympathize with Sister Mary in her bereavement. Still we cannot with our own find news of the entire Mormon movement look upon it in any other light than a special dispensation of Divine Providence. I am far from intending to insinuate that it was by the appointment of God that the murder of the Smiths was perpetrated. I look upon the transaction as one of a most inhuman and disgraceful nature.But still I view it as a special permission with license for a wise and useful end.1 After the Martyrdom, Willard Richards and John Taylor Direct the Church Immediately upon Elder Taylor’s return to Nauvoo, Willard Richards sent a letter to Brigham Young in Boston, but he knew the letter would take some time to arrive.2 Until instruction from him was received, he and Elder Taylor met together at the latter’s home where John was recovering. From there they directed the continuing affairs of the Church.3 On July 4th, for example, a large raft of lumber arrived from the pineries in Wisconsin, where many members of the Church lived with their families while they cut lumber for the construction of homes and the temple in Nauvoo.
