Currently Playing: Filling in the History - Ep 26 Part 4 - D&C 70 and a Special Conference

Give credit where it is due. The special conference in the Johnson home promises inheritances in Missouri to those of the Harris family, Whitmer family, Smith family, and others who gave support and protection during the founding of the Church and the publication of the Book of Mormon. Section 70 is given which expounds similar ideas and delineates duties for the Bishop verses the High Priesthood. The last big moments before John and Oliver head off to Independence to set up a print shop and go to work.
