An unfinished, unpublished manuscript written by newspaper editor Thomas C. Sharp describes the 1845 conflict in Hancock County that led to the decision of the Mormons to leave Illinois. It is important in that it is a rare look at this conflict from a non-Mormon perspective. He included non-Mormon opinions of the murders of Franklin A. Worrell and Samuel McBratney, the Mormon occupation of Carthage, and the convention which accepted the Mormon proposal to depart from Illinois.
