(Arthur Lawton) 1890 1973 Beeley, Arthur Lawton Being a summary statement of the investigation made by the British government of the "Mormon" question in England Produced by the Mormon Texts Project (https://mormontextsproject.org/) with thanks to Andy Hobbs and Shawnee Hawkes. "Being a summary statement of the investigation made by the British government of the 'Mormon' question in England" by Elder Arthur L. Beeley is a historical account published in the early 20th century. This book seeks to address and refute various accusations against the Mormon community in England, particularly allegations regarding immoral practices and the coercion of young women to emigrate to the United States. The author compiles findings and statements from British parliamentary debates, aiming to clear the name of Mormons who were vilified within the media and by certain religious leaders. In the text, Beeley presents excerpts from discussions in the House of Commons, where concerns about the actions of Mormon missionaries were raised, alongside the responses from government officials, including Winston Churchill. Despite persistent inquiries into the allegations, government findings concluded that no evidence supported claims of criminal behavior by the Mormon community. Beeley emphasizes the thoroughness of these investigations and argues that the absence of evidence after extensive inquiries signifies the innocence of the Mormons. By the end of the account, Beeley asserts that the persistent accusations against Mormons are unfounded and indicative of prejudice, leaving the reader to question the motives of those who continue to spread such claims.
