THE LATTER-DAY SAINTS' MILLENNIAL STAR, Volume VI, No. 1, June 15, 1845 through No. 12, December 1, 1845. LIVERPOOL: Published by Wilford Woodruff and Thomas Ward, Stanley Building, Bath Street, MDCCCXLV (1845). Binder's tiny signature at the top corner of the front free endpaper "Wm Huline / Binder". Contemporary paper covered boards, 5.5x8.5 inches (4x21 cm). Pagination: general title, preface and index bound at front, 204 pages, blank front and rear endpapers. ASSOCIATION COPY: Provenance of JOSEPH SLINGER, ORDAINED PRIEST of the LATTER DAY SAINTS in 1840. His signature is at the top of the title page. From the Minutes of the 1840 LDS Conference: "A general Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was held in the Carpenters Hall Manchester on the 6th day of July 1840.Moved & Carried that JOSEPH SLINGER, George Walker. John Smith.be ordained Priest." Joseph Slinger is also noted as a donor on an 1844 manuscript list of Tithing Donations for the building of an LDS Temple in Nauvoo, Illinois. Condition: The text block has been professionally resewn, the covers rehinged, and some corners restored; making this a solid copy. The front and rear boards are worn, scraped and rubbed; there is no spine covering, the sewn text signatures are neatly and attractively visible. There is early scribbling (or attempts at writing by a child) on the pastedowns, and a drawing on the front free endpaper, all of which I think adds to the uniqueness of this copy, showing that it was kept in a home and treated as a common book to be marked up and used, not as scarce collectible item meant for a museum. I especially like the naive drawing on the front free endpaper of what appears to be an LDS woman in a modest dress. Also at the top of the front free endpaper is written: "(I. V.?) White's book from (J. C.?) Foss. April 25, 1902". Perhaps these names have an association to the Mormons, but I have been unable to determine it. The text pages are toned as normal, with some foxing, spotting, soiling, marks, edgewear, etc. here and there throughout, but the text is always fully legible. The last issue, No. 12, titled: FURTHER PERSECUTION OF THE SAINTS IN AMERICA has relevant marginalia and underlining noting and commenting on various passages. Overall, with the professional resewing and restoration, this is a complete, sturdy, presentable copy. UNCOMMON with the EARLY LATTER DAY SAINT PRIEST'S PROVENANCE, and with the Binder's Signature.…
