| Thomas B. Marsh and Orson Hyde
1838 Affadavits |
Thomas B. Marsh, President of the Quorum of the Twelve,
having fled the violence in Daviess and Caldwell counties, testifies October
24, 1838 in Richmond that a company of Mormons under Apostle
David Patten had burned Gallatin, that Danites planned to burn Buncombe
and perhaps Liberty and Richmond; that Joseph believes his prophecies are
superior to the laws of the land, and so forth. Orson Hyde knows most of
Marsh's statements to be true, believes the rest. |
| Thomas B. Marsh to Joseph Smith, February 1838 |
Ouster of Presidents David and John Whitmer,
and W. W. Phelps. People support the move, want to live the law of consecration.
Joseph and Sidney needed in Zion. Critics stop when Joseph is present.
Signed statements attesting Oliver admitted Joseph
did not say he was guilty of the crime he is charged with (Fanny Alger affair). |
