Alma 24:26 And it came to pass that Moroni having no hopes of meeting them upon fair grounds, Therefore, he
resolved upon a plan that he might decoy the Lamanites out of their strongholds;
Alma 25:4 Therefore, Moroni
resolved upon a stratagem to obtain as many prisoners of the Nephites from the Lamanites as it were possible; Therefore, he wrote an epistle and sent it by the servant of Ammaron, the same who had brought an epistle to Moroni.
