William E. McLellin journal

 Collection — Multiple Containers
Identifier: MSS 8360
Scope and Contents

Collection contains digital copies and transcriptions of William E. McLellin's original journal of 1871-1872, written after McLellin broke with all organized religion in 1869. It contains about 200 pages of his commentary on scripture and religious doctrines (a mixture of Mormon doctrinal theology, personal opinion, and traditional Christian theology). The style of this journal and the occasional address McLellin uses suggest he may have been writing this journal for publication.
