Another minister delivered a course of lectures against him, to which he replied in his own hall--the Wellington Rooms. Another--a Mr. J. Curran--published a series of newspaper articles against Mormonism, to which he replied. At the same time the Rev. Robert Heys, a Wesleyan Methodist, published three pamphlets in opposition to his doctrines, to each of which he published a reply.
