Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 67: May 18, 1905 In common with all books, the Book of Mormon has its spirit, produces its effects upon the minds of men; and as it claims to.be a work originally written and also translated through the inspiration of God, and deals primar ily with sacred things, it is to be expected that the spirit of this book will have not only a good, but even a divine influence; that it will be of a faith promoting, doubt-dispersing, comfort-bringing character. Its effect upon the minds of men, therefore, may be another test of its claims to a divine origin and to that test I now submit it. In his work entitled, My First Mission, the late President George Q. Cannon makes the following statement respecting the influence exerted over his spirit by reading the Book of Mormon under the trying conditions in which he was placed while serving as a missionary in the Hawaiian Islands.
