DescriptionDeseret cursive examples based on the Mormon bishops meeting minutes recorded by George D Watt.svg
English: These are a bunch of different words from some meeting minutes recorded by George D. Watt, which after the meeting was concluded he sent to Watt's office, and are now sitting in the LDS Church archives.
I vectorized certain words in that 1854 document. All of the words and how they are written come from the document. I intended to show some of the more unorthodox things that could be done in the cursive form of the Deseret alphabet: as being written with 𐑆 hanging on for dear life to the end of 𐐰, etc. This image is meant to be used with the companion image
