Strang's Meetings In New York City

Source

Michigan History Magazine, Volume 5:

"It seems evident the secret of Strang's relations with Elvira Field was shared by some, at least of his more intimate followers. Probably inklings of the secret were gained by some with whom Strang had no desire to share it. At any rate two of them, Lorenzo Dow Hickey and Increase Van Duzen, in the high tide of the Prophet's meetings in New York City precipitated a violent uproar."
